`npm start` not working for my create-react-app application. Missing template?

I typically just run npm start for my create-react-app project but after I restarted my computer I can no longer do it and get this weird error:

module.js:341
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Cannot find module './Template'

I tried running npm install and updating npm and npde but nothing worked

I had the same issue running the npm start command.

Installing the npm version 4.6.1 helped me solve the problem. I hope it is helpful for some of you.

Ahh found a fix. All i had to do was:

rm -rf node_module

to clean then ran

npm install

That seemed to work =)
