mathbbol and Metric (TFM) file not found

Question

Hello everybody I am a new Latex user and I have a simple document:

\documentclass[12pt,onecolumn]{report}

\usepackage[ansinew]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{graphics,graphicx,color,colortbl}
\usepackage{subfigure}
\usepackage{algorithm}
\usepackage{algorithmic}
\usepackage{amsmath}
%\usepackage[colorlinks=true, citecolor=black, linkcolor=black, urlcolor=black, breaklinks=true]{hyperref}
%\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{bbold}
\usepackage{mathbbol}
\usepackage{arydshln,leftidx,mathtools}
\usepackage{bm}
\usepackage[top=52pt, bottom=34pt, left=24pt, right=24pt]{geometry}

\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage[table]{xcolor}
\usepackage{xparse,environ}

\theoremstyle{plain}% default
\newtheorem{thm}{Teorema}[section]
\newtheorem{lem}[thm]{Lemma}
\newtheorem{prop}[thm]{Proposizione}
\newtheorem{definition}[thm]{Proposizione}
\newtheorem{exmp}{Example}[section]
%\DeclareMathAlphabet\mathbfcal{OMS}{cmsy}{b}{n}

\begin{document}

\title{ SIMULATION}

\author{Name\\
    University of Study ,\\
    \texttt{mail@gmail.com}}
\date{\today}
\maketitle
\section{prova}
\begin{exmp}
    This is the example.
\end{exmp}

\end{document}

But when I try to include \usepackage{mathbbol} I have this error:

Font U/bbold/m/n/14.4=bbold14 at 14.4pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not found. \maketitle

How can I solve it?

you don't have the mathbbold fonts do you have to load the package? (black board bold is also available with amsfonts) — David Carlisle, Feb 08 '16 at 22:28
I would not use ansinew in a new document, better to use a standard encoding such as latin or (better) utf8 — David Carlisle, Feb 08 '16 at 22:35
The tfm are not preinstalled, but normally miktex should create them on-the-fly. Is your system up-to-date? — Ulrike Fischer, Feb 08 '16 at 22:47
the encoding comment is unrelated, but true nevertheless:-) but you didn't say whether you needed those fonts, certainly the example document does not. If specifying a font you have not got not specifying it or installing the font are always the two options, and obviously not specifying it is easier if you don't need it. — David Carlisle, Feb 08 '16 at 22:54
the operating system is not really related in any way, if you are using pdftex it uses its own fonts not fonts from the system, — David Carlisle, Feb 08 '16 at 23:00
Also, subfigure is obsolete and ought not be used in new documents. Use subfig or subcaption instead. — cfr, Feb 09 '16 at 00:33
I have solved the problem but I don't know why!!
I have removed %\usepackage{mathbbol} and if I try to use \mathbb{A} in an equation not have problem. — Luca Angelino, Feb 09 '16 at 08:20
Whyyy??? mathbbol package is not necessary for use \mathbb{} ???? — Luca Angelino, Feb 09 '16 at 08:21
amsfonts provides \mathbb. I'd never even head of mathbbol until I saw your question! — Ian Thompson, Feb 09 '16 at 08:23

Happened to me. Forced the MIKTEX console to update all packages, and the problem is gone.
