I had the same problem. I solved this problem by uninstalling node_modules and then deleting both the npm and npm-cache folders in %APPDATA%and finally installing the complete node_moodules again.

You can use these steps to remove node_modules:

  • sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules
  • sudo rm -rf ~/.npm
  • brew uninstall --force node
  • brew install node

I hope this will help to solve your problem.
