Nodemon doesn't start the server - node.js

Question

I installed nodemon to devDependencies and set the script "start" : "nodemon server.js". However, when I do npm start, it throws me this error:
Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Users\win10\Desktop\nodemon\bin\nodemon.js'

My package.json
{
"name": "question-answer-rest-api",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "Back end project for practice",
"main": "server.js",
"scripts": {
"start": "nodemon server.js"
},

"dependencies": {
"express": "^4.17.1"
},
"devDependencies": {
"nodemon": "^2.0.7"
}
}
I also filled in server.js and tried that way but it didn't work.
My server.js file
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const PORT = 5000
app.listen(PORT, () => {
console.log(`Server started on port ${PORT}`)
})
There are no any file in the folder. I couldn't find similar error in SO. I installed nodemon as global and checked the global environment in pc. There is no problem with it.
What is the problem ?

Answer 1

Try
npm uninstall nodemon
Then
npm install -g nodemon
It should works
