what fixed this for me was installing specifically at version 2.4.2– yarn add react-native-background-fetch@2.4.2

Installing with yarn worked for me yarn add react-native-background-fetch and then react-native link react-native-background-fetch

The Android implementation of background-fetch didn’t arrive until version 2.3.0. If you had a version < 2.3.0, there was no android folder.

I’v tried in two different Windows PCs and both of them failed with the automatic setup. Same error both times.
