Laravel development server failed to listen on 127.0.0.1:8000

[mikecobb-io]

• Laravel Version: 8.0.3
• PHP Version: 7.3.9 with all necessary extensions enabled
• Database Driver & Version: MySQL 8.0.17
• OS: Windows 10

Description:

After running composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog to create a new project the php artisan serve command fails to start the server. The terminal output is:

Starting Laravel development server: http://127.0.0.1:8000
[Thu Sep 10 14:02:24 2020] Failed to listen on 127.0.0.1:8000 (reason: ?)

It tries ten times before exiting. I have tried to start it on a different port but this also fails.

Other projects on the same machine running Laravel Framework 7.22.4 can all start the server.

Steps To Reproduce:

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog
php artisan serve

We don't use Windows ourselves and we've had other reports that this works for people on Windows.

See #34229
