I tried it and ... it worked! Thanks Hans! However, I still think that the installation of fonts with MikTeX should be looked at. It is not quite normal that for instance the generated file ec-urw-helvetic.tex does not compile ...
Anyone who has successfully tried out some fonts with MikTeX, I am happy to communicate!

If so, doesn't \setupencoding[default=ec] \usetypescript [berry] [ec] \setupbodyfont[pos,10pt] some text in times work?
