I was able to create a hook for my changes addon folder, but the problem now is any changes i make for the store not reflecting, why?
Note that i didnt have any proplem with xampp installation process, apache is working fine beacuse im working on other projects other than cscart and all is good, I did cleared cache of the browser an also from administration panel.
One more thing to add to what @ecomlabs said: if after cleaning cache changes are still not reflected, try to delete the contents of var/cache/ directory in your store. Sometimes it helps (at least it did for us )
