create-react-app ( Yarn-error )

error An unexpected error occurred: "https://registry.npmjs.org/react: error:0909006C:PEM routines:get_name:no start line".

Hello community 👋

• I am fresh at learning JS Frameworks and kicked it off with react a couple of days ago from Traversy Media tutorials on Youtube.
• Following the procedural tutorial, when I used CRA previously, it worked only that I noticed in his Project build folder, he had a 'yarn-lock' file ~ which I did not have, but CRA created the production folder nevertheless.

Trying out to create a personal project now and I'm getting a direct abort of installation :

I have read a couple QA's regarding CRA issue with Facebook. I would like to know if I am doing this right? Or whether create-react-app is dead !?
