@noblez-90z, running the below command will create the npm directory which currently doesn't exist.

npm install npm -g

as an alternative you can manually create the folder.

mkdir 'C:\Users\dj waterside\AppData\Roaming\npm'

if non of that works, you may try running the command prompt as an administrator when running npx create-react-app first-project

i hope this works for you
