LaTeX hyphenation and line breaking not working

Question

I am unable to produce a simple text with hyphenated words and justified lines with PDFLatex.

Here is a MWE

\documentclass[12pt,openright,a4paper,twoside]{article}
%\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} %It does not change anything
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{kantlipsum}
\usepackage{indentfirst}
%\usepackage{hyphenat} %It does not change anything

\begin{document}

    \kant[1]
    
    discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous discontinuous 
            
\end{document}

here is the output

here is the log file

Answer 1

I went to MikTeX console in Administrator mode and updated babel-english and hyph-utf8 packages. Now it works perfectly.
