[Samoo]

Please can someone help me with the below error messages encountered while trying to install the "tidyverse" package and loading it.

install.packages("tidyverse")

Trying to load the package, I got the below error message.

Was there no error message during the installation of tidyverse?

What happens if you run

install.packages("colorspace")

If that runs successfully. Try running library(tidyverse) again.

I had a similar problem after I updated my R version. I can't quite remember how I fixed it - have you tried installing Rtools before tidyverse?

Dear FJCC,

I followed your direction and the library got loaded successfully without usual errors.

Many thanks.
