For windows 10 users, make open "XAMP" programe, then at apache click button "config" then edit "php.ini".

#1- remove the semicolon (;) before this line

extension=php_gd.dll

#2- restart xamp

#Problem : when try to "composer update" print error:

 Problem 1
    - maatwebsite/excel[3.1.28, ..., 3.1.30] require phpoffice/phpspreadsheet 1.16.* -> satisfiable by phpoffice/pfice/phpspreadsheet[1.16.0].
    - maatwebsite/excel[3.1.31, ..., 3.1.x-dev] require phpoffice/phpspreadsheet ^1.18 -> satisfiable by phpofficeoffice/phpspreadsheet[1.18.0, ..., 1.25.2].
    - maatwebsite/excel 3.1.27 requires phpoffice/phpspreadsheet ^1.16 -> satisfiable by phpoffice/phpspreadsheet[sheet[1.16.0, ..., 1.25.2].
    - maatwebsite/excel 3.1.26 requires phpoffice/phpspreadsheet ^1.15 -> satisfiable by phpoffice/phpspreadsheet[sheet[1.15.0, ..., 1.25.2].
    - maatwebsite/excel[3.1.0, ..., 3.1.25] require php ^7.0 -> your php version (8.1.6) does not satisfy that reqat requirement.
    - phpoffice/phpspreadsheet[1.15.0, ..., 1.25.2] require ext-gd * -> it is missing from your system. Install orall or enable PHP's gd extension.
    - Root composer.json requires maatwebsite/excel ^3.1 -> satisfiable by maatwebsite/excel[3.1.0, ..., 3.1.x-dev.x-dev].

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

You may need to edit your php.ini file and restart the server. Add absolute paths in php.ini configuration. It worked for xampp server in my windows 8.1 machine.
example:
extension_dir="\xampp\php\ext" to extension_dir="C:\xampp\php\ext"

Reference: How to fix PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'ext\\php_curl.dll'?

Edit: Additionally for my some cases, needs to edit browscap="xampp\php\extras\browscap.ini" to browscap="C:\xampp\php\extras\browscap.ini"

I had faced the same problem after updating my php version from 7.0 to the latest version which is 8.1.3 as for now , the solution I used was :-

Just comment the extension in the php.ini found in (C:\xampp\php\php.ini) extension=gd2

Note: comment by prefixing semicolon at the start

I have fought with this for the last 12 hours on my Windows 10 box. For anyone having the same trouble I am having, you need to edit the php.ini to call out the full name of the DLL file. I had to change pdo_sqlite to php_pdo_sqlite.dll and sqlite3 to php_sqlite3.dll.

Just comment out ;extension=pdo_sqlite in php.ini if you don't need it. It was enabled by default in my configuration and the error message is gone.

You are missing the b2z module for php. Which is normally included in the php package for windows

I would suggest reinstalling php or manually moving the package from the download to the correct folder or switching to a vagrant environment.

Download:

https://windows.php.net/download/

In the folder ext/bz2

Move these folder contents over to the according folder.
