Can't find module yarn-3.x.x.cjs (Yarn v3)

Question

I'm trying to install a package using yarn, but I keep getting 'Cannot find module' error. It gives this error when I try to run any command using yarn in this folder. Notably, the error started occuring after I deleted the .yarn folder.

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:936
  throw err;
  ^

Error: Cannot find module '/home/chronos/user/Downloads/codes/some-react-app/.yarn/releases/yarn-3.1.1.cjs'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:933:15)
    at Function.Module._load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:778:27)

    at node:internal/main/run_main_module:17:47 {
  code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
  requireStack: []
}

Should I delete my yarn.lock file, or what can I do to solve the problem.

UPDATE:

It seems that the link I provided earlier has been removed. It was just the yarn-x.x.x.cjs file that was there. Another solution I found was to delete ALL the global yarn configuration files. On bash terminal that's rm -f ~/.yarn*. Run yarn set version stable or your specific version, then run yarn install again and you should be good to go 😊

I found a fix.

For those who face this problem, what I did was, from my project directory, create a directory .yarn and inside it another directory, releases, then download: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GlobexDesignsInc/gxdrecords.com/master/.yarn/releases/yarn-3.1.1.cjs and paste in the releases folder.

You should now be able to run yarn commands from your project directory.
