my npm version is 8.1.4 and i solve this problem by running :
npm cache clear --force

I resolved it by deleting node_modules and package-lock.json and run npm install again.

Probably it's a project that works with Yarn and not NPM. Try Yarn instead of NPM.
yarn install
and then you can do
yarn start
or
npm start
