you need to check maatwebsite/excel version compatible your php or laravel version if its compatible try this:
composer clear-cache ,
composer update ,
php artisan cache:clear ,
composer dump-autoload ,
composer require maatwebsite/excel
The error message indicates that Composer is unable to delete a directory
(HTMLPurifierEntityLookup)during the installation process.Solution 1: If you have an antivirus program running, temporarily disable it and then run the composer require maatwebsite/excel command again. Antivirus programs can sometimes lock files and prevent them from being deleted during the installation process.
Solution 2: Open a command prompt as an administrator and then run the composer require maatwebsite/excel command. Running Composer with elevated privileges might help overcome permission issues.
Solution 3: You can try manually deleting the problematic directory mentioned in the error message
(C:UsersreturnDesktoptask_project_crud/vendor/composer/389c7ae0ezyang-htmlpurifier-bbc513dlibraryHTMLPurifierEntityLookup). After that, run thecomposer require maatwebsite/excelcommand again.
