Hi Boczko,

welcome to the forum!

There was an error in the pgf package causing such a message, that has been fixed. Try if you can update the pgf package using tlmgr, the TeX Live Manager.

Otherwise, try adding \usepackage{pgf} to ensure it's loaded.

Hi Becca, welcome to the forum! Read that file: C:\Users\HP\AppData\Local\MiKTeX\2.9\miktex\log\pdflatex.log That file should contain an error message that tells you why pdflatex did not succeed. You can also post this error message here, or the complete .log file as attachment. The attachment link ...

That doesn't raise my trust in Windows or ProTeXt or MiKTeX.

It shouldn't do a lot in the registry I assume. So one may just delete the MiKTeX folder on the disk and then install TeX Live.

Storing data in the aux file and using it, requires another LaTeX run to read it in. I didn't analyze why one needs 3 runs here, but I'm aware that sometimes even more than 2 runs are required until stuff is balanced, such as auto-adjusting lengths of TOC numbering entries.

That file is source code and probably not present on your system but for example on Github. Well, there is one big distribution that is maintained and tested and ported to many platforms, and that is TeX Live . Then there is MiKTeX, a admirable effort of a single developer, only available for Window...
