Laravel installer throws error when creating new project

I am trying to create new Laravel application.

I have installed XAMPP and Composer. With Composer ( composer global require laravel/installer ) I have installed Laravel.

But when I try to use laravel new firstProject command to create new command the instalation throws two errors.

I am using Windows 10 if that helps.

  [ErrorException]
  ZipArchive::extractTo(C:UsersUser1DesktopPHP/vendor/composer/374ddf59/laravel-laravel-8e55104public/robots.txt
  ): Failed to open stream: Permission denied

I have tried:

1. Reinstalling and updating composer
2. Reinstalling and updating Laravel
3. Changing folder where I want to create my project
4. Using the composer create-project laravel/laravel blog command to create new project through composer still the same errors as above

Answer

Read with understanding:

Failed to open stream: Permission denied.

This means that your command line have no access to read or write in current directory. You have to change directory permissions and it should work.
