General ⇒ Problem with Compilation

[Cala]

I have successfully installed MikTex on a Windows 7 operating system and I am using the WinEdt. However when I attempt to compile a correctly writen Tex code to pdf mode I get error with the message: "I can't find the default format type" (!) Apologies if this is something common, or if it is discussed before, but I was unable to find any helpful information using the Forum's search...

Hi Cala,

welcome to the board!

You could try on the command prompt:

Code: Select all

initexmf --dump

Or use the MiKTeX settings program, a description with screenshot is here in this blog post: Updating babel.
