On the Apache official distribution site There is no binary available for Apache 2.4 on Windows. http://www.us.apache.org/dist/httpd/binaries/win32  You might have installed by downloading from other sites like apachelounge.

Unfortunately it will not be available until official binary available at apache official distribution.

I don't think Apache plans to release a binary for Windows. They do provide the source that can be compiled though. 

So what you're saying is anyone with a windows environment will be limited to Apache 2.2, presumably forever because Apache will not be releasing a 2.4 binary... Is this correct? 

EDIT: Also, just to clarify, Apache does not distribute ANY 2.4 official binaries. Any binaries that are linked from their site are from a third party... why do these other environments, in this case, have a dispatcher release for 2.4 but not windows?

Is dispatcher module available for Apache 2.4 on window now ? There is Apache 2.4 binary available for Windows now.
