Thanks to those people who have assisted me. I installed the NRPE package for Windows available in SourgeForge.net but this package has not the nsc.ini which you mentioned in your e-mails. You somehow pointed me to the right direction and when I installed the NSClient++ everything started to work well. As far as I can see, the NRPE client doesn't have a specific document for the Windows installation and always refer to the UNIX installation, although there is a Windows installer.
