Since you started installing MiKTeX, a possible practical solution for
the moment is the following:

-- Unistall
-- Install again.
-- Don't update.
-- Load the package manager and download the packages of interest.

That's all.

The problems you report has its origin in MiKTeX unistalling core
components and installing in a second update, the remaining
components. Sometimes something does not get well specified and we
encounter this problems.

In any future update I will procede, having backed up MiKTeX folders
(about four or five of them).
