Cannot find save handler ‘memcached’ Magento 2
I have faced the same issue when memcached was configured for Magento 2. The system was throwing the below error
Warning: ini_set(): Cannot find save handler ‘memcached’ in E:\xampp\htdocs\mage2\vendor\magento\framework\Session\SessionManager.php on line 570
In my case it was due to save_handler value was not udated in php.ini file.
So Make sure that save_handler is modified in php.ini file as well.
Please follow Configure Memcached Magento 2

Unable to load dynamic library ‘xampp\php\ext\php_memcache.dll’
I have configured Memcached in XAMPP running onwindows 10. But the module was not appearing in phpinfo() data.
The system was throwing the following error.
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘xampp\php\ext\php_memcache.dll’ – The specified module could not be found
The issue was due to the fact that the php_memcache.dll downloaded was not mathcing with the PHP version(7.1.14) that I have been using.
Later I downloaded the correct php_memcache.dll file from https://codeload.github.com/nono303/PHP7-memcache-dll/zip/master
