To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files:
    - C:xamppphpphp.ini
You can also run `php --ini` inside terminal to see which files are used by PHP in CLI mode.

And:

composer update

Output

Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

Use the option --with-all-dependencies (-W) to allow upgrades, downgrades and removals for packages currently locked to specific versions.

How can I fix this?

    I used this command line and all of a sudden things happened like magic!

    composer update --ignore-platform-reqs

    I had a similar problem, giving off a similar message:

    Problem 1
- laminas/laminas-i18n[2.11.0, ..., 2.11.3] require php ^7.3 || ~8.0.0 -> your php version (8.1.10) does not satisfy that requirement.
- laminas/laminas-i18n[2.12.0, ..., 2.18.0] require ext-intl * -> it is missing from your system. Install or enable PHP's intl extension.
- laminas/laminas-mvc-form 2.0.0 requires laminas/laminas-i18n ^2.11.2 -> satisfiable by laminas/laminas-i18n[2.11.2, ..., 2.18.0].
- Root composer.json requires laminas/laminas-mvc-form ^2.0.0 -> satisfiable by laminas/laminas-mvc-form[2.0.0].

To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files:
    - C:phpphp-8.1.10-nts-Win32-vs16-x64php.ini

    What I did here is that I opened the php configuration file (php.ini) located in the folder that path points to in the error message (C:xamppphpphp.ini in your case), checked if the named extensions were commented (had ; in front).

    I commented the needed ones out, and then checked if the extensions directory looked for extensions in the right folder (Most of the time it should be extension_dir = "ext"). In my case, this was commented, so the program didn’t really know from where the extensions were to be loaded. Uncommenting that line solved the problem for me.

    when you try as a very first time please use –ignore-platform-reqs.
    this error occured due to your php version mismatching problems. then please use

    composer install --ignore-platform-reqs

    Happy coding!

    Solution is, going to root folder of PHP (probably in C:Program Filesphp or inside xamppphp) and search for php.ini file. Inside this file, find out the commented line ";extension=fileinfo" and delete the ";" so it gets uncommented ad save the file.
    That was the problem for me.
    Really dumb, but apparently no one fixes it by default.
