Laravel composer update fail with mbstring on Windows

Question

I think my case is weird and I don't know exactly what my problem. I got this error message when I do composer update:

the requested PHP extension mbstring is missing from your system My environment:

Windows 7 x64
PHP 5.6 (XAMPP x32)
Laravel 5.4.*
php_mbstring already installed in C:/xampp/php/ext and set enable in php.ini
Restart webserver and even restart Windows several times

BUT in the end, it doesn't work.

The problem in this case is Windows command line permission. Just have to run the command line with admin permission.
