Thank you to all,
who respond to my above post!

I receive your advices in form of MikTex-Users Digest, Vol 118, Issue 5. 
Following them I (after some unsuccess trying ...) succeed to do the 
following:

- with package manager I remove l3kernel package from MikTeX tree
- download l3kernel.tds.zip and extract it in the localtextmf tree 
(where is in (already existed) branch /tex/latex)
- refresh database.

And now all work fine.

Happy TeX-ing and again thank you for help!

Regards, Zarko
