When I was installing Laravel 11 in my Windows 11 system, I got "failed to download laravel/laravel from dist the zip extension and unzip/7z commands are both missing skipping windows" error on CMD. And Laravel is not installed on my system.
You can see which error is coming in the image below:

To resolve the issue of missing zip extension and unzip/7z commands on Windows, you need to ensure that the necessary PHP extensions are enabled in your PHP configuration file.
php.inifile.extension=zipand remove the semicolon;at the beginning of the line to enable the zip extension.php.inifile and restart your web server.Additionally, make sure that the
7zcommand is installed on your system. You can download and install 7-Zip from the official website (https://www.7-zip.org/) and ensure that the installation directory is added to your system's PATH environment variable.
