creating a database in symfony 3.4 – PHP Versions

i am trying to create a database within my symfony3.4 but i am always facing the same error;
` In AbstractMySQLDriver.php line 115:

An exception occured in driver: could not find driver

In PDOConnection.php line 47:

could not find driver

In PDOConnection.php line 43:

could not find driver`

i try to configure the php.ini but still the same problem, i used the documentation to configure my parameter.yml and config.yml

parameter.yml

# This file is auto-generated during the composer install
parameters:
    database_host: 127.0.0.1
    database_port: null
    database_name: symfony
    database_user: root
    database_password: null
    mailer_transport: smtp
    mailer_host: 127.0.0.1
    mailer_user: null
    mailer_password: null
    secret: ThisTokenIsNotSoSecretChangeIt

config.yml(the doctrine part)

# Doctrine Configuration
doctrine:
    dbal:
        driver: pdo_mysql
        host: '%database_host%'
        port: '%database_port%'
        dbname: '%database_name%'
        user: '%database_user%'
        password: '%database_password%'
        charset: UTF8
        # if using pdo_sqlite as your database driver:
        #   1. add the path in parameters.yml
        #     e.g. database_path: '%kernel.project_dir%/var/data/data.sqlite'
        #   2. Uncomment database_path in parameters.yml.dist
        #   3. Uncomment next line:
        #path: '%database_path%'

and yes i know that is better to work with the latest version but i am just an employee and i am ordered to use this version: symfony 3.4 php: 7.4.9
ALSO i am using xampp on windows
