Good evening, I'm trying to start a react projet using the classic npx create-react-app <app-name>, but I encounter the message :

You are running `create-react-app` 5.0.0, which is behind the latest release (5.0.1).

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

So do I ! I run the next command as asked : npm uninstall -g create-react-app, immediatly it returns me a up to date in 63ms.

All seems good but if I try the create app command, it still send me the same error message ...

I tried with the yarn one too, same issue, I even uninstalled nodejs from my computer, reinstalled it, still same issue !

Running on windows.

Thanks you in advance.

  • Do you have git-bash or some other way of using standard Unix tools? `which npm-create-react-app` would tell you why `npm` thinks it's installed globally, and `file -h` on the result of that would tell you if that's actually a broken link, which you could just unlink or delete. Or in CMD, you could use `where` instead of `which`, then go to that path in Explorer and see what kind of file it is. – Zac Anger Apr 08 '23 at 20:01

    I used `npx create-react-app@latest your-project-name --use-npm` and it works, fine for me, thanks you for help – Ulrick Evrard Apr 08 '23 at 20:12
