I have installed the recent version of MiKTeX on OS Windows 11, last update: 12/02/2022, last week and I have a problem. It had never happened to me before. If I write this minimal working example like this

 \documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
 \usepackage{amsmath,amssymb} 
 \begin{document}
 alpha
 \end{document}

I receive always the following message:

This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-1.40.24 (MiKTeX 22.11.25) (preloaded format=pdflatex.fmt)

?

.aux file.

\relax 
\selectlanguage *{spanish}
\@writefile{toc}{\selectlanguage *{spanish}}
\gdef \@abspage@last{1}

What has happened?

Related old question: Package babel Error: You haven't loaded the option spanish yet. Deleting .aux does not work

How should it be solved?

    I can't reproduce your problem (I tested your MWE as is in new file), however, you not load babel.

    Presumably the minimal example is too minimal and the problem only occurred in your tests only because of commands left over from previous runs in the temporary files (.aux or possibly one of the .lo... files). Does the MWE reproduce the error for you when you run it in a new, empty folder?

    a log is always generated, but here simply delete the .aux

    you probably compiled something using polyglossia earlier. Simply delete the aux and recompile.
