There is no such a thing like a htdocs in PHP That is Apache stuff (the server).

And , yes the main root is htdocs for default settings many times but that should be configured. httpd.conf is the file where you can edit the DocumentRoot and Directory-tags Then restart your server and it should work.

But anyway , if you need only one file to be executed from a different place , you can use the php file. So for example , to run .php file on your desktop , you can use on terminal/cmd C:/locationofphp/php.exe 'C:\location\of\php\file' or /locationofphp/php "/location/of/file"

As i said , check if there is something like:
#DocumentRoot "/xampp/htdocs"
DocumentRoot "c:"

#<Directory "/xampp/htdocs">
<Directory "c:">
