Get the windows installer version of composer.
And you run composer from the folder you plan on doing the install of laravel in.
Should be https://getcomposer.org/download/

composer laravel installer permission denied on Windows 10
Hi guys how are you?
Tody I start work on Windows 10 again (previous was MacOS High Sierra).
And when I tried execute the command composer global require laravel/installer I received the following error:
Changed current directory to C:/Users/patri/AppData/Roaming/Composer
[ErrorException]

Hello, @patrickmaciel !
I hope you installed Composer via the official ".exe" installer as @jlrdw suggested. But besides that, you also need to include the vendors/bin folder in your user path variable if you want to run the packages .bat from PowerShell or CMD with ease.
Go to system properties -> Advanced -> Environment Variables. In the variables for you user, append to the "path" variable something like %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\bin
If you did a custom/script installation, you need to define the COMPOSER_HOME variable as well. Look at the docs: https://getcomposer.org/doc/03-cli.md#composer-home
Let me know if it helps.

@JLRDW - Im using the windows installer version.

@DIEGOAURINO - yes, I already do that. But the error was gone after 3 hours doing the same command... Im think is a problem in the package repositories... I dont know, it's really gone and the only thing I do is, install and reinstall 20 times.

@PATRICKMACIEL - Hello, @patrickmaciel !
Could you show me your system and user variables? Follow the path I showed you in my comment above.

The same issue was found with laravel 10. X. X (latest version). Need to update the composer but "Windows 10" and above do not allow commands like "composer self-update". So I downloaded a new composer.exe from the web https://getcomposer.org/download/ and installed it again(without removing the older one), It'll update automatically and it worked.
Level 1
I am sorry to reopen this but has anyone found a reason on why this is happening? With the latest version of Composer I am running into the same issue.
C:\xampp\htdocs\dashboard\Laravel-minewache>composer install
Composer could not find the config file: C:\ProgramData\ComposerSetup\bin

You are already using the latest available Composer version 2.7.7 (stable channel).

@ferdmusic The issue is that Windows doesn't like anything happening to the files in any of it's "system" folders.
I would suggest creation a directory under xampp called composer and moving the composer phar file there, and then setup the path to it instead, like suggested here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78631310/file-put-contentsc-programdata-composersetup-bin-failed-to-open-stream-perm
Level 1
@Tray2 Thank you for that quick answer! This was also what I thought as the XAMPP installation also stated something similar (UAD Permissions). That's why I changed the composer installation to the directory you suggested. Now I still have another problem and I don't know if I am just the one not understanding composer or if it is acting weird for me. When I am cd'd into my project directory and do something with composer it seems to want to go to its installation path. From my understanding it is susposed to install the dependecies/look for the composer.json in the current directory. It seems to not be doing that.

@ferdmusic not using windows but I would guess you need to copy all files to that directory
Level 75
@ferdmusic I have never had these problems with composer, you tell composer where the php folder is during installation.
