Please remove any global installs with one of the following commands:

npm uninstall -g create-react-app
yarn global remove create-react-app

CodePudding user response：

Have you installed react globally? if yes, then remove it using

npm uninstall -g create-react-app

and then run your

npx create-react-app blog

if still you face the same issue than try creating a blog folder and inside that folder, run

npx create-react-app .

may be it will fix your issue.

CodePudding user response：

Run the following 3 commands sequentially:

npm uninstall -g create-react-app
npx clear-npx-cache
npx create-react-app@latest my-app

I also encountered this problem and by installing the package with yarn, everything works! Even removing then reinstalling with npm, it didn't work. Here is my solution

yarn add create-react-app
create-react-app {app_name}
