I am getting an error module. 471^throw error when i try to run gulp

So over the last 3 days I have been trying to figure out this issue. I cant move forward with my project until i can complete it. My error is.. Laptop module.js:471 throw err; ^

Error: Cannot find module 'C:\c\Users\Joe's Steezy Laptop\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\gulp-cli\bin\gulp.js' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:469:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:417:25) at Module.runMain (module.js:604:10) at run (bootstrap_node.js:383:7) at startup (bootstrap_node.js:149:9) at bootstrap_node.js:496:3

I have heard of multiple different things. Saying that my username (Joes' Steezy Laptop) is an issue, because the name has spaces and npm cant read spaces. I have also reboot my computer, and completely wiped out nodejs, npm and anything to do with those from my laptop. Every file and folder. I have no idea what to do from here. Ive tried multiple different commands and nothing yet. Still stuck at square one. Please, if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know! thank you!

does the laptop name really have an apostrophe in it? this could be a problem. could you also post your gulp code?
