Hi everyone, I am new to R and I experience a major problem I am unable to fix. I want to use the readr package, which is included in the whole Tidyverse package. When I install them (either Tidyverse as a whole or just readr individually), I manage to get them installed, but when I come to load readr, it fails with the message that 'hms' hasn't been found that thus readr fails to load.
I googled around for the awner through most of the evening and then looked at the suggestions of similar topics that was given to me by this site editor, yet none seems to do it. I tried to install while turning the "dependencies" argument to TRUE, without change. I tried to install 'hms' and 'rlang' individually, without change. Also, oddly, while my RStudio is in english, the error messages are in french (I understand the language, but I find it odd). Here's the output of the installation:
install.packages('readr')

I'm a windows 10 user. Please help, I feel other people might google the issue and see us solve it. I hope to make great contributions too.
Thank you so much
