I am facing the same issue even when I tried to create project from CLI. I have installed latest Salesforce CLI and I have added correct path to Environment variables still I am facing this issue. Please help me revolve this issue.

This appears to be the same error as this post

Have you tried the approaches mentioned in https://success.salesforce.com/answers?id=9063A000000pwoMQAQ i.e.,

• Installing the x64 version of the CLI and changing the PATH environment variable to point to that
• Rename and move "Salesforce CLI" folder to a path without space in its name
• Open visual studio code as an administrator
• Ensuring you have installed the appropriate version of CLI i.e., x64 CLI or x86 that your machine would support
