Trying to create react app with; npx create-react-app <my-app> on my WSL. But I keep getting this;

(node:11362) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, copyfile '/home/cliffaust/.nvm/versions/node/v14.17.0/lib/node_modules/create-react-app/yarn.lock.cached' -> '/mnt/c/Users/kings/firstproject/yarn.lock'

I installed node by first installing nvm using;

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.35.3/install.sh | bash

Then installed npm;

nvm install node

Everything works fine, but npx create-react-app <my-app> seems not to be working. I also tried it with nuxt, using npx create-nuxt-app <my-app> and I get npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime. I don't know if that's related or the same. I am new to linux in general, and it will be nice if explanation or answer is presented simple.
