Answer 1

It is wamp, I am sure you must be having mbstring library, just make sure extension=php_mbstring.dll is not commented in your php.ini

Answer 2

You need to install or enable the php-mbstring library.

Have a look at the phpinfo() and check if that module is enabled. After installing / enabling it make sure the Apache service is restarted.

mbstring

Multibyte Support => enabled 
Multibyte string engine => libmbfl 
HTTP input encoding translation => disabled 
libmbfl version => 1.3.2 oniguruma version => 5.9.6
