So, I'm using Windows 10 and have the latest version of Xampp installed. Then install Composer. Then I opened a command prompt in xampp's htdocs folder and ran the following command:
composer create-project laravel/laravel myfirstapp
I get the following error:

And it will continuously try to synchronize all content that cannot be downloaded, in a never-ending loop.
As I understand it, the extension is missing in php.ini? I can only find the sqlite extension in the php.ini file. How can I solve this problem? Should I edit the php.ini file and add the extension? What extensions are added for laravel 9 and php 8.2?
As described below:https:// /www.php.net/manual/en/zip.installation.php#zip.installation.new.windows
You need to manually enable this extension in php.ini.
