After uninstalling MiKTeX and installing it again I have the following:
When I run in the command line biber --version, I have the following error:
No such file or directory at /loader/HASH(0x6b4950)/PAR.pm line 1137.
After uninstalling Biber (the red line in the attached picture) I cannot install it again as it's shown in the picture.
When I go to the command line and I type biber --version I recive the following error:

(pdf)latex -> biber -> (pdf)latex (twice)? – Bernard Nov 18 '19 at 21:48.blgfile? – Bernard Nov 18 '19 at 22:08.blgfile? – moewe Nov 19 '19 at 06:04.logis probably largely irrelevant to this issue. As the question stands now the issue seems to be purely with Biber not starting correctly. The log tells me you are running a Windows OS and that you are using MikTeX. Can you run Biber on your document from the command line? Can you share the complete error message you get when you try to runbiber <filename>? Does the same error occur when you runbiber --versionorbiber --help? It is a long shot, but if you are lucky it may help to delete the Biber cache: https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/140814/35864 – moewe Nov 19 '19 at 19:23biber --uninstall. You need to remove the Biber installation via the MikTeX Console in both admin and user mode. Then re-install in Admin mode. – moewe Nov 28 '19 at 08:03
