How does the point system work when winning? Several times I lost 1 or 2 points when winning!

Not possible.

I am assuming you are talking about game ratings. Even if you are rated 1,000 points above your opponent, you cannot lose points when winning.

Please provide a screen shot of your archive showing what you think is a reduction in your rating when you won.

I think he is talking about computer analysis. I agree that sometimes you can be winning a game and the analysis will show that you are losing by a point or two. The last game I had analyzed said  something like "you blundered(1.90),..., you blundered(3.80),..., you blundered(8.19),..., Checkmate, you won.

If that's the case, think the following through.

A blunder is a move that costs you, say, >1 point in material.

You have two options, one which gives you +3.05 and one which gives you +8.91. Playing the former is a blunder by those standards.

It is not unusual where a very top chess engine will think it is winning when it is really a draw or that a very top  chess engine will miss a win.

I don't have a screenshot but I won games and saw a -2 or -1 instead of an increase in my rating. If I ever see that again I will try to capture the screen!
