This is quite frustrating / embarassing / annoying but I may have just solved it by simply restarting my computer. I wonder how many steps I could have saved that way. Maybe the perl installation was all I needed after all. I will check on other computers. Thank you so very much for your help! Hopefully the issue is now resolved.

Cheers,
Marius

Fine. Now in the **same** command line switch with cd to the folder
of your example tex-file and then enter

pdflatex --shell-escape name-of-your-file
