MikTex Console Configuration
Update MiKTeX
First of all, update MiKTeX by running this command in your terminal:
miktex packages update
Important!
This command must be run at least twice (continue until you see no packages updated anymore)
Configuration
MiKTeX is to be installed in User mode (not Admin mode)
Admin Mode leads to package load errors and a mix-up when users are not logged in as Administrators and the flag on “Always” is not set correctly (which requires Admin privs when installing).
Select Settings
and configure as per screenshot:
