npx npm problem

Question

I encountered such a problem, I installed NodeJS and tried to use the npx create-react-app my-app command in the VScode terminal and this is what it says to me

Program 'npx.cmd' failed to run: The system cannot find the file specifiedAt

For the smart people who will write about Path, you don’t have to write, I’ve already checked everything there 100 times, tried reinstalling, running with administrator rights, nothing helps

Answer 1

try this

npm install -g create-react-app

Answer 5

try this
yarn create react-app your-app-name

or this
npm init -y npm install react react-dom react-scripts --save

Then, add scripts to your package.json

"scripts": {

"start": "react-scripts start",

"build": "react-scripts build",

"test": "react-scripts test",

"eject": "react-scripts eject"

}

npm start

or try this

If the issue persists, you can try specifying the full path to the npx.cmd file. Locate where npx.cmd is installed and use its full path in your command:

C:\path\to\node_modules.bin\npx.cmd create-react-app your-app-name
