I also had the same issue. I am using Ubuntu. I used vue-cli before, so there is a file create ~/.vuerc which saves all your presets. In here, package manager was set as “yarn” which I no longer had. After deleting the file and using vue create, I was prompted to select package manager. The issue was resolved post this.

Note: Before this, I installed yarn with which the error was resolved. But would recommend to use the above method.

Thank you. I also ran into the same issue using ASDF for managing different node environments and this gave me a lot of headache.

Deleting the ~/.vuerc file solved the issue.
