It looks like you already have a number of libraries loaded and R cannot update a loaded package. Restart R and RStudio and give it another try.

If you get the same problem it may be that R is automatically restoring your working environment. In that case go to Tools -> Global Options and uncheck Restore .RData into workspace at startup.
