How fix error npm "This is related to npm not being able to find a file" in Laravel?

Question

I want to work with Laravel Broadcasting and follow the instructions, I created a completely new Laravel 8.12 project and try to run with npm run dev command, but I get errors:

npm ERR! code ENOENT
npm ERR! syscall spawn sh
npm ERR! path /Users/administrator/procob
npm ERR! errno -2
npm ERR! enoent spawn sh ENOENT
npm ERR! enoent This is related to npm not being able to find a file.
npm ERR! enoent 

My package.json:

{
"private": true,
"scripts": {
    "dev": "npm run development",
    "development": "mix",
    "watch": "mix watch",
    "watch-poll": "mix watch -- --watch-options-poll=1000",
    "hot": "mix watch --hot",
    "prod": "npm run production",
    "production": "mix --production"
},
"devDependencies": {
    "axios": "^0.21",
    "bootstrap": "^4.0.0",
    "cross-env": "^7.0.3",
    "jquery": "^3.2",
    "laravel-echo": "^1.10.0",
    "laravel-mix": "^6.0.11",
    "lodash": "^4.17.19",
    "popper.js": "^1.12",
    "postcss": "^8.1.14",
    "pusher-js": "^7.0.3",
    "resolve-url-loader": "^3.1.2",
    "sass": "^1.20.1",
    "sass-loader": "^8.0.0",
    "vue": "^2.5.17",
    "vue-template-compiler": "^2.6.10",
    "webpack": "^5.20.2"
}

}

And full error
