This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You are experiencing issues after installing three WPML plugins: String Translation, WPML CMS, and Multilingual & Currency. The specific problems include errors with the String Translation table, which could become critical in the future, and missing records in the languages tables, preventing WPML from functioning correctly.
Solution:
If you have not started any translations yet, we recommend performing a WPML reset to resolve the database creation errors. You can follow the steps outlined here: WPML Reset Guide.

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, please open a new support ticket. We also highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. For further assistance, you can contact us directly through the WPML support forum.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting WPML support!

It seems like that for some reason WPML database creation ended up with errors.

I suppose you have not done any translations yet because of this, correct? If so, can you try this:
