I have tried to install MikTeX using the Net Installer (setup-2.9.6942-x64) from a local repository that has the update of the 13 February but I am getting this error:

An error occurred: source file: Libraries\MiKTeX\PackageManager\PackageDataStore.cpp source line: 397 message: The requested package is unknown. info: name="biber-windows-x64"

  • Welcome to TeX.SE!! This is probably a very silly question, but have you checked that your Windows version is compatible with what you want to install (32/64 bits)?

The problem is due to the 13 February update. I downloaded a new update (18 February) and this solved the problem.
