This is a major version upgrade from v0.1.19 to v2.0.0 that introduces significant breaking changes in how the plugin is configured.

Key Breaking Changes:

• Configuration Overhaul: All configuration options from versions prior to v2.0.0 have been removed and replaced. Options such as paths, exclude, root, watch, and beforeEmit are no longer valid.
• New Default Behavior: By default, the plugin now cleans the entire directory specified in webpack's output.path without needing any configuration.
• New Options: For custom cleaning patterns, you must now use new options like cleanOnceBeforeBuildPatterns and cleanAfterEveryBuildPatterns.

Recommendation:
Your webpack.config.js file must be updated. Remove the old clean-webpack-plugin options and instantiate the plugin with no arguments for the default behavior, or use the new cleanOnceBeforeBuildPatterns option for custom paths.

Example (Old v0.1.x):
new CleanWebpackPlugin(['dist'], { root: __dirname })

Example (New v2.0.0):
new CleanWebpackPlugin()
