Did you try the alternative method they list on the manual page? Where instead of using the installer you use composer? composer create-project laravel/laravel test-laravel-5-project –prefer-dist — Andy

Btw if you want to make multiple Laravel projects of any version, I suggest you to make virtual host maybe it is worth it to look at this link stackoverflow.com/questions/27754367/… this works for windows os. — Maytham Fahmi

Use below command to install a new laravel project of a specific version

composer create-project laravel/laravel your_project_name 4.2.*

here 4.2.* is the version

Edit:

Update your composer.

You can use below command:

composer self-update

and then create project like this:

composer create-project laravel/laravel {you-project-name} 4.2 --prefer-dist
