PHP8 cannot change the extension.

Same issue here.

I'm using php8 nts with nginx, but its not working.
All plugins seems unchecked/deactivated and nothing happens when I try to activate them.

@tembesil I had the same issue, it looks like Laragon isn't activating any of the extensions, even though it is adding things like the SSL certificates to the php.ini file. I found a workaround to was to copy the enabled extensions from a PHP7 php.ini file into the PHP8 file, then extensions can be selected / deselected, as required, using Laragon.

This is the section to paste in. Open the php.ini file from the Laragon menu (PHP > php.ini)

Search for extension=bz2, highlight from that extension to extension=xsl, delete then paste this in:

;extension=bz2
extension=curl
;extension=ffi
;extension=ftp
extension=fileinfo
extension=gd
;extension=gettext
;extension=gmp
extension=intl
;extension=imap
;extension=ldap
extension=mbstring
;extension=exif      ; Must be after mbstring as it depends on it
extension=mysqli
;extension=oci8_12c  ; Use with Oracle Database 12c Instant Client
;extension=odbc
extension=openssl
;extension=pdo_firebird
extension=pdo_mysql
;extension=pdo_oci
;extension=pdo_odbc
;extension=pdo_pgsql
;extension=pdo_sqlite
;extension=pgsql
;extension=shmop

; The MIBS data available in the PHP distribution must be installed.
; See http://www.php.net/manual/en/snmp.installation.php
;extension=snmp

;extension=soap
;extension=sockets
;extension=sodium
;extension=sqlite3
;extension=tidy
;extension=xmlrpc
extension=xsl

The extensions will be available, others can be selected (e.g. I've selected tidy):

Edit: gd2 changed to gd, allowing this snipped to be copied in.

Update:

Extension gd2 has been changed to gd, if you copy in the above snippet then remove the 2

- extension=gd2
+ extension=gd
