Faced this problem when I upgraded the php in UwAmp to 7.2.*. The only solution that worked for me was to download the latest version of apache at the time (Apache/2.4.37 (Win32)) and replace the one that came with UwAmp. That also involved editing the sample httpd.conf to produce an httpd_uwamp.conf file. UwAmp needs this template to then generate the actual httpd.conf when it starts up. All other suggestions above didn't resolve it for me unfortunately. Also note that as of OpenSSL 1.1, libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll are no longer required (see http://php.net/manual/en/curl.installation.php)
