Problem with installation of a specific laravel version

Question

Once I try to install Laravel version 5.2 on Windows, it is displaying the error shown. Other newer versions are installing successfully.

I have a PHP version 5.6.40 and the composer is installed.

Warning: require(C:\xampp\htdocs\Media\bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\Media\bootstrap\autoload.php on line 17

Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'C:\xampp\htdocs\Media\bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='C:\xampp\php\PEAR') in C:\xampp\htdocs\Media\bootstrap\autoload.php on line 17

We got an error because we have missing vendor folder in our project, The vendor directory contains our Composer dependencies.

Need /vendor folder because all packages are there and including all the classes Laravel uses, A problem can be solved after following just two steps:

composer update --no-scripts 
composer update
