Failure during cypress open after cypress v8.4.0 upgrade

I'm trying to use cypress 8.4.0. Used 'npm install cypress --save-dev' to install it. However, after installation, running any command npx cypress open/ run end up with error.

It looks like this is your first time using Cypress: 8.4.0

Cypress failed to start.
This may be due to a missing library or dependency. https://on.cypress.io/required-dependencies
Please refer to the error below for more details.
----------
Command failed with exit code 2147483651: C:\Users\NEX20UR\AppData\Local\Cypress\Cache\8.4.0\Cypress\Cypress.exe --smoke-test --ping=672
----------

When I run 'npx cypress verify', I got below error:

Cypress verification timed out.
This command failed with the following output:
C:\Users\NEX20UR\AppData\Local\Cypress\Cache\8.4.0\Cypress\Cypress.exe --smoke-test --ping=466
----------
Command timed out after 30000 milliseconds: C:\Users\NEX20UR\AppData\Local\Cypress\Cache\8.4.0\Cypress\Cypress.exe --smoke-test --ping=466
Timed out

more details: Cypress package version: 8.4.0 Cypress binary version: 8.4.0 Electron version: 13.2.0 Bundled Node version: 14.16.0

PS: I uninstalled and installed many times.

I future if u have issues with the latest cypress version downgrade to a stable lower version for eg

npm install --save-dev [email protected]

Also ,check if the npm is installed properly by opening command prompt and type
