'Keep getting error while creating react app

I have been trying to create a react app, so basically a new project such as hello world or anything.

I try using npx create-react-app my-app

The error I get is:

You are running `create-react-app` 4.0.0, which is behind the latest release (4.0.1).

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/

I try following those steps and even uninstalled using npm uninstall -g create-react-app but I still keep getting the same error.

My npm version: 6.14.8

This is such a basic process to create a first application in react I am not sure why is it so complicated. Could someone please tell how can I fix that error and also how can I create an react app smoothly?

If more information is needed please feel free to comment down below:)

reactjs create-react-app

Solution 1:^[1]

npm install -g create-react-app

Above fixed it for me.

Solution 2:^[2]

Worked for me:

npm uninstall -g create-react-app
npm install -g create-react-app
npx create-react-app app-name

Solution 3:^[3]

I tried with this command. It worked

npm install -g create-react-app
npx create-react-app my-app

Solution 4:^[4]

I had the same problem. So what I did is:

npm uninstall -g create-react-app
npm install create-react-app --save
npx create-react-app my-app

and it worked. The second line, I think, is to have create-react-app locally.

Solution 5:^[5]

Dont worry ,it can be fixed by installing create-react-app globally
run these two lines and it can be fixed

npm install -g create-react-app
npx create-react-app your-app

Solution 6:^[6]

I solved it using the following command.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app

then

npm install -g create-react-app

Afterwards you should be good to go with npx create-react-app my-app :)

Solution 7:^[7]

You need to use below command for creation of new project.

npx create-react-app applicationname

Solution 8:^[8]

I put in the code npm uninstall -g create-react-app and I get the below its not deleted anything PS C:\Users\deann> npm uninstall -g create-react-app

up to date, audited 1 package in 435ms

then I put

PS C:\Users\deann> npm install create-react-app npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: This version of tar is no longer supported, and will not receive security updates. Please upgrade asap.

The two commands helped me when I came across with this issue.

npm uninstall -g create-react-app - this uninstalles the old version

npm install -g create-react-app - this installes the new version

then put the command npx create-react-app name-of-folder
