NPM start failed to compile

[donnevaliente]

Hello,
when ever try to start the react server on my local system with npm start, I receive this error. I would really appreciate the help

My node and npm versions are

node --version
v18.12.0

npm --version
8.19.2

PS C:\Users\b\Desktop\folio\frontend_react> npm start

> [email protected] start
> react-scripts start

Failed to compile.
