As mentioned before, I just reinstalled Windows 10 x64 again. It was not a matter of MikTEX but the operating system. On the other hand, I also downloaded all the packages (not the basic installation of MikTEX). Having experienced this full installation, I can say I prefer this way due to the computer does not need to connect and download packages when compiling.
Check out the latest MiKTeX repositories for a possible problem. The problem could be that the repository is corrupt (faulty update, incorrect checksums, etc). The solution then might be to switch to a different (intact) server, or different repository all together.
It turned out the problem was indeed caused by the missing mpm.exe.
The reason is that somehow the (current) "Basic" MikTeX installer does not install the miktex-mpmcli-bin package. This really should be considered a bug because mpm.exe is essential for the correct working of a number of MikTeX (GUI) tools which said installer does install (e.g. the "Update" tool).
To resolve the problem it suffices to install the miktex-mpmcli-bin package through the "Package Manager".

Thank you so much.
