At last found a way round... Actually gave administrator rights to the
standard account. Then updated using MikTeX update (admin); new files to
update appeared and these files were then visibly copied somewhere in
the 'AppData' folder of the standard account; then rcmd Rd2pdf worked...
Went back to the adminstrator account to give back standard rights to
the standard account.
Works now !
Looks like there is sometting either weird in the way MiKTeX manages
installation or weird in the way I manage with MiKTeX.
