Composer Fails with SSL Error on Windows 11

[p-o-e-t-i-q]

Hello Composer Team,

I am experiencing an issue with Composer on a Windows 11 system. When trying to create a Laravel project or executing other Composer commands, I encounter the following SSL error:

The "https://repo.packagist.org/packages.json" file could not be downloaded: SSL: Handshake timed out

I have already attempted to resolve the issue by disabling IPv6, but it did not help. Could you suggest any other potential solutions to address this problem? Here are some additional details about my system and configuration:

• Operating System: Windows 11
• PHP Version: 8.1.28
• Composer Version: 2.7.4
• Commands Used: composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app
• Using a Proxy or VPN: yes

Any assistance or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
