Node Nodemon Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Program Files\Git\node_modules\nodemon\bin\nodemon.js'

Question

• I am a beginner at NodeJS stuff.
• Environment is Windows 7 64 Bit.
• Node is installed and working.
• NPM is also working fine.
• Nodemon is installed. (In App and also Globally)

Now when I run the command:

"nodemon server.js" or just "nodemon"

it gives the following error:

module.js:549
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Program Files\Git\node_modules\nodemon\bin\nodemon.js'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:547:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:474:25)
    at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:693:10)
    at startup (bootstrap_node.js:188:16)
    at bootstrap_node.js:609:3

• I don't understand what this means? And why is it looking inside the Git folder?
• Does it have to do anything with Environment Variable? But Node and NPM are both working fine.
• Any ideas/suggestion/solution?

Below is my "server.js" file in case you need for reference.

var express = require("express");
var bodyParser = require("body-parser");
var morgan = require("morgan");
var path = require("path");

var app = express();
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended: true}));
app.use(bodyParser.json());

app.use(function (req, es, next) {
    res.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
    res.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "GET, POST");
    res.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "X-Requested-With, content-type, Authorization");
    next();
});

app.use(morgan("dev"));
app.use(express.static(__dirname + "/app"));
app.get("*", function (req, res) {
    res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname + "/index.html"));
});

app.listen(8080);
console.log(">>>>> App is Running <<<<<");
