Whenever I ran
npx create-react-app my-app-name
it would throw this error:
You are running create-react-app
4.0.3, which is behind the latest release (5.0.1).
We no longer support global installation of Create React App.
Please remove any global installs with one of the following commands:
- npm uninstall -g create-react-app
- yarn global remove create-react-app
The latest instructions for creating a new app can be found here:
https://create-react-app.dev/docs/getting-started/
If you simply run the command:
npx clear-npx-cache
and say yes to downloading the package, you can simply rerun the create-react-app command and it should work perfectly

(I am using ubuntu.)
the message i am getting:

I have already tried:
npm uninstall -g create-react-app
npx clean-npx-cache
npx create-react-app#latest project-name
Nothing works
what should i do now?
I know it is late but...
I also had the same problem and every solution I found didn't seem to work. In the end I found it out.
I have both yarn and npm installed
create-react-app was installed in both and they were referencing each other
You need to perform both if you have both yarn and npm
npm uninstall -g create-react-app
yarn global remove create-react-app
Then clear cache using one (or both)
npx clear-npx-cache
npm cache clean -f
Then run to install and create the app
npx create-react-app#latest your-app-name
Hope it helps someone :)
I'm trying to install react to create a project in vs code. When I try doing this using npx create-react-app frontend I get:
Need to install the following packages:
create-react-app
Ok to proceed? (y)
Which then gives me an error saying that:
You are running `create-react-app` 4.0.3, which is behind the latest release (5.0.1).

I entered npm uninstall -g create-react-app and followed the latest instructions , but the the latest instructions say to use npx create-react-app, and when I try it again I keep getting the exact same issue. Does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix this?
You need to uninstall the global installation first which you did but in my case I had to clear the cache too.
try this:
npx clear-npx-cache
npx create-react-app my-app

create-react-app

The latest instructions for creating a new app can be found here:

as it says in the error you need to remove the global installation of create-react-app, so run these two commands based on if you are using npm or yarn:
- npm uninstall -g create-react-app
- yarn global remove create-react-app
after it's done open up the terminal in your directory again and use the npx command. it should do the trick.
npx create-react-app my-app
As already mentioned in this post try deleting the npx cache
npx clear-npx-cache
when I was trying to run create-react-app using the command npx create-react-app app I got the following Message

I then tried to uninstall create-react-app globally using npm uninstall -g create-react-app and rerun npx command again i still get the same message that I should uninstall create-react-app globally even so the only module that is installed globally is npm on my machine
You first need to uninstall the globally installed create-react-app and then, invalidate the cache.
Command for the same: npm uninstall -g create-react-app && npm cache clean -f
Now, you may continue with creating the application again using: npx create-react-app application-name.
This question is similar to this one.
Try npm cache clean –-force command after uninstalling create-react-app globally.
Hopefully, the following code will work:
npx create-react-app#latest my-app
