Package loads require admin privileges

[TurnipFlu]

Windows. Most resent update of Rstudio with R installed. User was running as admin; now standard user. Rstudio won't load library without admin privileges. User has full permission to the library folder in user profile.
Gives "LoadLibrary failure: The network path was not found." Did a complete reinstall of R & Rstudio.

This very much looks like a file permission issue. Run .libPaths() to see where R is trying to load packages from. Then check that the user has access to them. If in doubt, delete the user library completely, and reinstall the packages.

Thanks for the suggestion. .libPaths() points to the "C:/Users/USERNAM/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.4" "C:/Program Files/R/R-4.4.1/library"
but the error still shows as: During startup - Warning message:
package ‘stats’ in options("defaultPackages") was not found
Error in inDL(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now), ...) :
unable to load shared object 'C:/Program Files/R/R-4.4.1/library/stats/libs/x64/stats.dll':
LoadLibrary failure: The network path was not found.
Permissions on the folders are set for Full for the user.
Recommendations?

Try running R as admin. It is works as admin, but does not work as a regular user, then it is a permission issue.

How do I check that the user has access to packages?

See your Windows docs, e.g. https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000137238/understanding-file-and-folder-permissions-in-windows

You can also try reading a file (e.g. a DESCRIPTION file) from a package within the library.

stats.dll

In some occasions I have the same problem with other libraries. Im try to re install the packages that error said and restart Rstudio. Finally run well.

Also when the above does not work, I ask to install as admin those packages because my user does not allow me to copy files .dll in C:
