I have just made a fresh Laravel 6 installation, and have run into the same problem. I have updated npm and NodeJS but these didn't help. So far I haven't made any code changes.

I new up a laravel project. I run npm install. I run npm run dev (or npm run watch), and it keeps saying additional dependencies must be installed, but doesn't install anything.
I tried deleting node_modules folder and reinstalling, that didn't help as well.
Everything was fine yesterday. It just started randomly being a problem today. It is a problem on both laravel 6 and laravel 5.8 by the way.

This was fixed earlier today. Can you ensure that you have the latest version of Mix installed? It should be 4.1.4.

Upgraded laravel mix through npm to 4.1.4 and everything started working as usual. @jeffreyway Thanks.
Laravel new ____ is currently bringing in by default: "laravel-mix": "^4.0.7",

I used composer create-project to start a new Laravel 6 project, which suggested mix 4.0.7. Running npm update updated laravel-mix to 4.1.4, which solved the problem. Thanks

That's fine. ^4.0.7 will include 4.1.4.

Running: npm install postcss@^8.3.1 --save-dev --legacy-peer-deps
Finished. Please run Mix again.
After finding this post I ran this command
npx mix --version
6.0.49
Is it something I have done locally, or is this something I do not have any control over.

@trondhuso that isn't an error. It's working as expected
