Error: Netlify CLI has terminated unexpectedly due to EADDRINUSE on port 5200

Describe the bug

"While deploying my MERN stack project using the Netlify CLI, I encountered an unexpected termination with the error EADDRINUSE. The CLI terminated because the address on port 5200 was already in use. This issue seems to be related to the Netlify CLI itself rather than my application."

Error details:

Error: Netlify CLI has terminated unexpectedly This is a problem with the Netlify CLI, not with your application.
