I'm trying to create a new react app, but I can't seem to do it. I have searched everywhere and done everything I could that can be done nothing is working. I have deleted node, npm, and npx two times and downloaded again, and then restarting my computer like 100 times but nothing works:

How can I fix this?
The problem seems to be that of an inappropriate installation. The go-to way to fix this would be to ensure a proper uninstall of node and npm. Please follow the steps mentioned here. Once properly uninstalled, head over to install node and proceed with the re-installation.
First, remove the package. If you have installed create-react package using npm then use
- npm uninstall -g create-react-app
or if yarn
- yarn global remove create-react-app
Then you can create a project:
npx create-react-app my-app
I tried deleting the node_modules folder, but I'm still getting the error. It was working fine, but suddenly has started throwing this error.
It's a react app, if that helps.

I ran into the same issue. Since your base image is node, npm should already be globally installed. There is no need to run npm install -g npm#7.0.3 and still be able to execute all npm related items afterwards.
Sorry, not enough rep to comment.
I actually ran into similar issues as well. Node's been updated which has bumped the npm version up to 7+, which seems to be causing people issues. My solution until I can fully flesh out the issues has been to version lock my Node/NPM within my container build.
FROM node:14.14-alpine3.11 is the instruction I'm using, keeps me at some 6.x.x version to keep my builds working.
I have been recently asked to add some features to a new project but suddenly I 'm facing this issue when trying to run npm install

Try to check you path variable, in this case, it should be C:\Windows\System32, If not, you can reference the answer of Saket, If still not work for you, only one way is that you need UNINSTALL current version and re-install again, it will fix.
You can solve this using below steps-
step 1: Run $ npm cache clean --force
step 2: Delete node_modules folder and package.lock.json
step 3: Run npm install
These could solve the issue !

I was faced this same problem . It is due to the issue with npm .
please run the following command in command Line
npm cache clean --force
then run
create-react-app <project Name>
If your problem still exist then switch from npm to yarn
run the following commands, it solved my problem
npm install -g yarn
yarn global add create-react-app
create-react-app <projectname>
It looks like you need admin privileges to write some of the generated files. Can you create a terminal instance with administrator rights then reissue the command?
You probably had "create-react-app" running before, which was the problem in my case anyway. The way I solved this was using
npm cache clean --force and ran create-react-app my-app again.
I suspect NPM has an issue. However, this was how I was able to resolve it
Follow this steps:
npm install -g yarn
yarn global add create-react-app
Create-react-app <projectname>
npm cache clean --force
Then try
npm create-react-app navigate
I also faced same issue and I rectified it using the comment
given below:
npm cache clean --force
After this comment try:
npx create-react-app project_name
Just run this one command to resolve issue:
sudo chown -R 1001:1001 "/home/<user_name>/.npm"
This is due to the network issues try to download all dependency one by one or try to clean cache "npm cache clean --force" after this try to create an app
npx create-react-app <app__name>. But your internet connection should be stable.
I tried the npm cache clean --force and the yarn route but, neither worked. What worked for me was running Powershell as Administrator then entering:
set-executionpolicy remotesigned
try this
npm install -g yarn
yarn global add create-react-app
create-react-app my-app
I had the same problem and this was solved to me with these steps:
Be sure that you have the lastest version of Node.js installed. (https://nodejs.org/)
npm install -g create-react-app
create-react-app client-app --use-npm or npx create-react-app client-app --use-npm
i hope it helped..
this should work
npm cache clean --force
I was also facing the same issue, here is how I fixed it :
1. I first cleaned my cache using the --force keyword
2. I reinstalled create-react-app globally
3. I recreated my app.
Illustration:
clean your cache
npm cache clean --force
Reinstall create-react-app globally
npm i -g create-react-app
Recreate your app
create-react-app .
This is what I did
npm install -g yarn
then this
npx create-react-app my-project
For me, i wasn't connected to the internet when i tried to run 'create-react-app', so i connected and tried it, it worked, i'm guessing it needed to install some packages from the internet.

i was facing similar error but i tried to run create-react-app command many times and finally it was created , this was the problem with my internet connection. check your inernet connection
I also encountered with the same problem, According to the error, you have a problem with your npm.
Try this command
sudo chown -R 1000:1000 "<location of npm>/.npm"
just take an example of my command
sudo chown -R 1000:1000 "/home/vidit/.npm"
All you need is npm cache clean --force
Works 100%
In my case, it happened when I aborted a wrong command I initiated.
Then I ran npm cache clean --force and the cache was cleaned; after that, I ran my npx create-react-app and it worked perfectly as it should.
Quick tip: Uninstall create-react-app from your machine like so, npm un -g create-react-app and run npx create-react-app instead of npm create-react-app any time you want to create a new react app.
Reason: npx will always use the latest version of create-react-app to create a new react app for your project, and npx uninstalls/removes the create-react-app package from your machine when it's done.
Don't worry, it takes about 20 seconds to install the create-react-app package, so...
Do not forget to npm cache clean --force when npx create-react-app goes bananas (i.e. refuses to work).
I faced the same problem, and I did these to solve the problem;
npm clean cache --force..
this didn't work... I returned a warning npm WARN using --forcing recommended protection disable.
I ignored that and did and reinstalled create-react-app globally by running;
npm i -g create-react-app
I created my app(project name) by running;
create-react-app my-app-name
I believe this should work for you..
I face the same issue.
I Try this But it does not work for me
npm cache clean --force
So uninstall Node
and install the latest version. It's worked for me
Hope it works for you :)
I resolved the same issue by changing the timeout time to greater than 30000
npx create-react-app appname -timeout=90000
In my case, none of the above mentioned worked for me. What fixed the problem was updating the npm:
npm install npm#latest -g
I did this because in the new LTS version (16.15.1) of NodeJS, npm was updated from 8.5.5 to 8.13.2.
just instead using the git-bash as a terminal use Windows powershell as a terminal it will work
in your system go to this location
C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming
and inside that you will find a folder named "npm" delete that folder
and try npx create-react-app command again. conform it will work
My problem was similar and unlike others cleaning cache by using (npm cache clean --force) wasn't working out for me
this helped me instead
npx create-react-app my-app --use-npm
hope this does the trick for anyone who isn't getting result from cleaning cache
This worked for me
run npm install -g create-react-app (it will install create-react-app globally)
then create your app by running npx create-react-app [project-name]
This was my error:
3695 verbose argv "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe" "C:\\Users\\****\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\node_modules\\npm\\bin\\npm-cli.js" "install" "--save" "--save-exact" "--loglevel" "error" "react" "react-dom" "react-scripts"

This solved the issue:
