I cannot seem to get bower working on my current project. The project began as a yeoman \'angular\' app a couple weeks ago, and now cannot remember exactly what I did, nor c
This happened to me from within a Jenkins build, and wiping out the workspace did the trick for me.
if you use cmder or ConEmu (both are simple terminal commander) go to options and uncheck "Inject ConEmuHk" option, your problem will be resolve ...!

I had the same problem, and removed the git files as suggested in a previous answer.
NG.
Then I removed bower.json. That fixed the problem.
Fortunately I work in a VM environment and fortunately I took a snapshot before I started deleting stuff (highly recommended practice). So I restored the snapshot and applied the right fix:
rm bower.json
bower init
bower init
asks a bunch of questions. I pretty much took the defaults. It restored my bower.json
dependencies based on what I had already installed in bower_components
Voila!
My unloadable package now loads.
Be careful ! it can be your command line tool that causes this problem. For me the problem was resolved using ConEmu and the bug was caused by a version of Cmder
