Cli: Cannot find module package.json

[a3785lex]

I just found that my heroku CLI is broken. No matter which command I execute, it crashes with the following error:

module.js:557
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Cannot find module '%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\heroku\client\package.json'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:555:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:482:25)

    at Module.load (module.js:573:32)
    at tryModuleLoad (module.js:513:12)

I am using heroku from PowerShel on a Windows 10 machine.
This error starts after I wrongfully typed the command heroku container help. Not knowing if it breaks something in the heroku CLI.

Edit:
After reinstall (did not reboot) my heroku CLI can run again. Did not know the version of the broken one because I did not keep the old setup file. But it should be fairly new because I just started to use heroku a few days ago.
node.exe -v reports 8.9.3

as discussed in https://github.com/heroku/cli/issues/653 this was due to a cleanup process that was too eager and deleted some essential files for some installs. A fix is out and if you're experiencing this, delete ~/.local/share/heroku/client and it should resolve itself.

On windows, I deleted C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Local\heroku\client
