create-react-app not working. Getting error "Module not found"

This is what I'm getting

I am not able to create a project using create-react-app, I get the error "Module not found".

Node version is 17.0.1 and Npm version is 8.1.1

I have reinstalled nodejs 3 times now and have tried different commands like

npm install create-react-app -g

npm cache clean --force

P.S - I have updated the nodejs to 17.0.1 as the picture version shows 16.13.0

So after almost 3-4 hours of trying different things, it has worked. I dont know which particular thing would have helped it to work but following are the things I tried -

  • Delete npm and npm cache folder.
  • Reinstall the nodejs (LTS version).
  • Create the app in another folder.
  • Used power shell instead of CMD.
  • npm fix
  • npm fix --force
