Hi @narayana_m ,

Please make sure you have installed Nodejs please check the installation using the command
npm -v , this command will show you the version of your Nodejs , if nothing shows up try installing the Nodejs.
Also try running PowerShell as an administrator and then try the npx create-react-app command again.

Please make sure your Nodejs installation path is set in your Environment variables.
To check:

  • Open System Properties > Environment Variables.
  • In the System Variables section, find the Path variable, select it, and click Edit.
  • Ensure that the path to your Node.js installation (usually C:\Program Files\nodejs\) is included.
  • If it is not present, add it manually by clicking New and pasting the path.

If you still face any issue, please feel free to ask us.

Hi @narayana_m,

Please try the following steps:
1.Open PowerShell as Administrator and run: npm cache clean --force
2. Next run this command: npm install -g npm
3. Open File Explorer
4. In the address bar of File Explorer, type the following path and press Enter: C:\Users\mahat\AppData\Roaming
5. If you can’t see the AppData folder, it might be hidden. You can make it visible by following these steps:
* In File Explorer, click on the “View” tab.
* Check the box labeled “Hidden items.”
6. Once inside the Roaming folder, look for a folder named npm.
7. If the npm folder doesn’t exist:

  • Right-click inside the Roaming folder.
  • Select New > Folder from the context menu.
  • Name the folder npm.
  1. Additionally, check for the npm-cache folder inside C:\Users\mahat\AppData\Local\. If it’s missing, repeat the same process to create it:
  • Navigate to C:\Users\mahat\AppData\Local\.
  • Right-click and select New > Folder.
  • Name the folder npm-cache.

9.Retry command:
npx create-react-app hello-world

If you still face any issue, please feel free to ask us.
