To solve this, you have to do the following:

  1. locate the file c:/xampp/php/php.ini
  2. open the file
  3. search for fileinfo and gd
  4. if your see ;extension=fileinfo ;extension=gd
  5. Remove the semicolon so it will be like this: extension=fileinfo extension=gd
  6. Close the file and run the package again

First, you need to understand what version of PHP the composer is running on; you can find out by entering the command into the console:

php -v

After that, open the folder of this version of PHP and look for the php.ini file, and uncomment the lines that are asked in the error, these are:

extension=fileinfo
extension=gd
extension=zip

And voila, everything works! In a new way, we run the composer command to load the library.

Running these three commands worked for me, in my case:

composer require "ext-gd:*" --ignore-platform-reqs
composer require "ext-fileinfo:*" --ignore-platform-reqs
composer require phpoffice/phpspreadsheet --ignore-platform-reqs

I have been facing the same error First, check which php.ini file you are working with with command: PHP -ini That's happened to me because I have both Xampp and Wamp on my machine and even fix extensions won't make it work

and to add a gd extension do these steps:

Open Wamp on the taskbar and then open the PHP version you are using then edit extensions search for fileinfo and gd if your see ;extension=fileinfo ;extension=gd Remove the semicolon so it will be like this: extension=fileinfo extension=gd Close the file and re-run the Wampp

Open your project in visual studio and click ctr+shift+` to open terminal or open cmd and to your project directory

and paste below code

composer require phpoffice/phpspreadsheet --ignore-platform-req=ext-gd

Above syntax worked form me.
