keep getting “? Something is already running on port 3000” when I do npm start on react app

Open cmd and write this

netstat -a -o -n

You will get list of active connections then find 3000 by hitting

Cntrl + f

Copy the PID of that port and hit this command

taskkill /F /PID PID_of_port

Edit This guide is for windows.
