React | How to detect Page Refresh (F5)

If you’re using React Hook, UseEffect you can put the below changes in your component. It worked for me

useEffect(() => {
    window.addEventListener("beforeunload", alertUser);
    return () => {
      window.removeEventListener("beforeunload", alertUser);
    };
  }, []);
  const alertUser = (e) => {
    e.preventDefault();
    e.returnValue = "";
  };
