If you don't need a 32bit R version, I would recommend removing it and keeping the 64-bit version only to avoid this issues.

I am using the Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)

Sorry but I don't understand your answer.
Have you tried uninstalling the 32-bit R installation from your system?

thanks for the help, for some strange reason the package installed and is now working.

If your question's been answered (even if by you), would you mind choosing a solution? (See FAQ below for how).

Having questions checked as resolved makes it a bit easier to navigate the site visually and see which threads still need help.

Thanks
