Answer 2

The error message says that it's looking for a file RefreshUtils.js in the directory C:\Users\HP\Desktop\practice site\javascript\REACT\Codingworld\node_modules\react-scripts\node_modules@pmmmwh\react-refresh-webpack-plugin\lib\runtime but doesn't find it.

This file is part of the npm package @pmmmwh/react-refresh-webpack-plugin .

It could be that you previously installed this package, or that this package is a dependency for another package you're using (eg react-scripts).

Your question doesn't include sufficient information, such as the content of your package.json file, and specifying which command is giving the error.

There could be various reasons causing the error:

• Running the command from the wrong folder

  In this case, navigate to the correct folder in your terminal, then run the command.

• Issues in your dependencies

  In this case, given that you have a package.json file in your project folder, reinstall all your dependencies:

  1. Delete the node_modules folder and the package-lock.json file

  2. Run npm cache clean

  3. Run npm install

Given that you're running the command from the correct folder and your dependencies are up-to-date, the error should go away.
