From the looks of the error, you are trying to run npx create-react-app on a windows OS.

The error is likely that a) npx does not exist on your system, or b) you may have installed nvm (node version manager) yet did not set the nvm directory in your path.

I just ran the same in both windows developer shell and CMD and the command succeeded.

Without better details, these are just guesses based on observation. OS? Did you install Node Version Manager? Did you create a PATH to the nvm folder?

I will point you in the right direction. You have to learn how to do so by reading and following the directions. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/dev-environment/javascript/react-on-windows
