Removed node_modules several times and tried to reinstall. Can’t understand what’s the reason that causes this and how to fix it.

metzelder’s answer helped me fix the issue. however if you run the command npm cache clean, it will give you a message

As of npm@5, the npm cache self-heals from corruption issues and data extracted from the cache is guaranteed to be valid

So, as of npm5 you can do by adding a --force flag to the command.

So the command is:

npm cache clean --force
