In my case, nvm-windows "destroy" my windows setting. https://github.com/coreybutler/nvm-windows

I uninstall nvm-windows than go to AppData (hidden folder sometimes) - change to visible: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4028316/windows-view-hidden-files-and-folders-in-windows-10 and remove npm cache manually (Under username\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache)

Also, run windows command %temp% Ctrl + A (select all) and delete - to clean up your system (maybe related).

Some of my global -g- packages (Like vue-cli should re-install) - after this weird bug (Nightmare).
