When I tried to install a new fresh Laravel 5.7.12 this morning using CMDer in my Laragon, I encountered this error message:
Problem 1
- Installation request for league/flysystem 1.0.48 -> satisfiable by league/flysystem[1.0.48].
- league/flysystem 1.0.48 requires ext-fileinfo * -> the requested PHP extension fileinfo is missing from your system.
Problem 2
- league/flysystem 1.0.48 requires ext-fileinfo * -> the requested PHP extension fileinfo is missing from your system.
- laravel/framework v5.7.12 requires league/flysystem ^1.0.8 -> satisfiable by league/flysystem[1.0.48].
- Installation request for laravel/framework v5.7.12 -> satisfiable by laravel/framework[v5.7.12].
So how to fix this PHP Extension Fileinfo is missing?

That’s all.
