You can update php.ini file for

sys_temp_dir="/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/temp/"

Restart Apache once done.

In some cases, the problem is that folders created in storage/app that have symlink to public/storage/app not show in the last. So, if we have a newly created folder, eg: storage/app/newFolder, that will not be present in public/storage/app/newFolder, and when we want to create a Zip there, will throw an error.

The solution can be that programatically create that folder, before any other action on storage, to make sure that the folder is available. After creating that folder, will retrieve files from corespondent location in /storage/app/newFolder.
