Why did NPM stopped working after an update?

2 Days ago I Updated NPM and yesterday I realized that it stopped working.

My platform is Windows 10 20H2.

Every single thing I do gives me the same error.

C:Usersethan>npm
internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:883
  throw err;
  ^

Error: Cannot find module 'code-point-at'
Require stack:

    'C:\Users\ethan\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js'
  ]
}

I’ve already tried reinstalling node and NPM but it didn’t worked.

What should I do and why did this happened? Please help me with this, Thanks.
