I got this resolved on my end.
My .npmrc file had proxy and https-proxy set up, not sure how they got in there.
I commented out both lines, saved file and working again as normal.

Your .npmrc should be in your C://Users/{{account name}}

Open the file with a text editor and remove proxy entries. Save file.

First use this: npm cache clean --force

Then it should work!

I was facing issue on windows 10. Changing folder location from C:/folder1/react-practice/my-app to C://react-practice/my-app fixed it for me.
