Cannot find module 'npmlog' after upgrading to NodeJS 4.0

[cedon]

After upgrading to NodeJS 4.0 on Windows 10 x64, npm is completely unusable giving me the following:

module.js:338
throw err;
^

Error: Cannot find module 'npmlog'

I have done just about everything I can think of short of downgrading back to 0.12.7. Reinstalls result in the same problem.

C:\Users\Cedon\AppData\Roaming\npm is the path for global installed modules, so if I have to guess, your global installed npm is not up to date. Try to remove the global installed npm and use the build in version, that comes with the node installer. To remove the global installed npm delete the npm and npm.cmd files in C:\Users\Cedon\AppData\Roaming\npm and the folder npm in C:\Users\Cedon\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules.

That did it. I thought I swept everything out but looks like that got missed. Thanks.
