error using npx create-react-app : "authorization required to access package react"

Question

when I try to create a new project it shows me that error:

error An unexpected error occurred: "http://some ip/react: authorization required to access package react".

What can I do?

npm version : 7.21.0 node : 12.18.4

how are you using it like `npx create-react-app my-project` is this what you try to do — sairaj, Aug 23 '21 at 13:30

Please make sure that you don't have some .npmrc file in the root folder or $HOME/. In my case I just removed it and it works.
