Not able to run NPM Start after create-react-app

Question

As I am learning the react for the first time I need to install the react-app but getting below error. I have tried everything from the instructions in the error log and several other available solutions of StackOverflow but still not able to solve and getting the same error.

Here is the pic of below:

And here is the log:

Please Help As soon as possible.

My first inclination is to reinstall create-react-app with npx command, unless you've installed it locally, then npm will work fine. — Kasey Chang, Jun 04 '20 at 06:10
Can you follow [these steps](https://stackoverflow.com/a/62122386/2873538), probably using yarn? — Ajeet Shah, Jun 04 '20 at 06:27

The solution to your problem is to remove the whitespaces in your username. In fact, the whitespaces anywhere in your path. In your case, your username is Mr Rushil Dewasker. That's two whitespaces. Change it to something without spaces and rebuild your project. It should work fine after that. I had this problem once, myself.

Well the error itself shows some way to solve this issue. Have you tried that?
