To resolve the "npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: This version of tar is no longer supported, and will not receive security updates. Please upgrade asap" warning, you can follow these steps:

  1. Update the version of the tar package in your project to a version that is supported and receives security updates.
  2. You can upgrade the tar package by running the following command in your terminal:
    3. npm install tar@latest
  3. This command will install the latest version of the tar package in your project, resolving the deprecation warning.
  4. If you have specified a specific version of the tar package in your project's package.json file, you can update the version there and then run npm install to install the latest version.
  5. After updating the tar package, make sure to test your project to ensure that it still works as expected with the new version of the package.
  6. Consider checking for any other deprecated packages in your project and updating them as well to ensure that your project is using supported and secure dependencies.

"Your 'tar' package is outdated. To fix this issue, run the following command:

npm i tar

and then press 'Enter' to confirm. This will update the 'tar' package to the latest version and resolve the problem of npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: This version of tar is no longer supported and will not receive security updates."

"This is not an error. create-react-app uses exactly version 2.2.2 of tar, even though it's outdated. You can install a new version of tar globally by running this command:

npm install tar@latest -g

However, since create-react-app uses another version, you might still see that warning."
