Strange characters in PHP Composer and Laravel installer output - Windows 10 CMD
<p>I have this problem on Windows 10 -- PHP Composer showing strange characters.</p>

<p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/NNxoO.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/NNxoO.jpg" alt="php composer screenshot"></a></p>

<p>I have tried to install <code>ansicon</code> as suggested <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35387667/git-bash-is-displaying-strange-characters-on-windows-7">here</a> and it solved the problem but then if I try to use terminal in JetBrains PhpStorm it's crashing...</p>

<p>Maybe I need to fix it without that <code>ansicon</code> but I can't find how.</p>

<p>I have this problem only on my Laptop -- on my Desktop it's working perfectly fine. They both have Windows 10 and PHP + Composer at the latest versions.</p>
