I've tried to create .env file in VS Code but it didn't work somehow. If you've any idea please let me know.

In windows normally you can not create a file without name. So to create a .env file there are three ways I know...

1. Copy paste from somewhere else
2. If you have installed php then run this command in console php -r "copy('anyfile.example', '.env');"
3. Create a txt file called anything.txt open CMD and find its dir then run ren anything.txt .env

Open your xx.env file with notepad++ and file -> saveas -> rename to .env and save
