[v8.0.0] Error When Creating a Laravel Project on Laragon 8.0.0

Error When Creating a Laravel Project on Laragon 8.0.0

Steps: Right-click on Laragon app > Quick app > Laravel

I have tried deactivating the license and installing Laragon 8.0.0 on another freshly installed Windows 11 machine, but the error still occurs. When the error happens, the software completely freezes, making it impossible to access localhost, the database, or other projects, requiring a restart of Laragon.

Error details: The error occurs during the extraction (unzip) step of the downloaded Laravel zip file, as shown in the following image:

@vantuyenzero : Thanks for reporting the issue. There is a similar issue and the solution is installing 7zip: #1086

Instead of installing 7zip, can you please remove the 7z.exe from utils?

1. I deleted the 7z.exe file, and the installation process proceeded smoothly without any errors. However, I’m curious—how does it unzip the files without a decompression tool? Next, I thought everything was fine, but localhost still refused to connect, forcing me to restart Laragon.

2. After restarting Laragon and running the newly created laravel.test, a database connection error occurred. It seems that the installation process was not fully completed.
