          Step 2: Delete node_modules by $ rm -rf node_modules folder or delete it manually by going into the directory and right-click > delete.

                  sh is a command which is runing on unix systems (such as macos, linux) do you try that on a windows machine?

                                u can also try changing package.json

                                  "scripts": {
                                    "start": "sh run-start.sh",   //< --- to "start": "bash run-start.sh",
                                

                                if the security thing is right
