however, npm does work. How do I fix this problem?

I've tried to downgrade the node.js version but it won't work.

Answer 1

I think it's a permission issue. Try adding the "sudo" prefix to the command

Answer 2

I got positive result adding "sudo" right before command:

npm install --global yarn

Like this:

sudo npm install --global yarn

And yarn was successfully installed.

Answer 3

Check the node version if it is older than LTS then consider updating the node.

Answer 4

I had to start running npx yarn instead of just yarn after I upgraded to node 18 for some reason.
