Hello, I am a newbie at R and have been trying to install package ggplot2. Based on other answers I installed the package tidyverse as well. However I keep getting the following error:
Error in system2(if (nzchar(arch)) file.path(R.home(), "bin", arch, "Rterm.exe") else file.path(R.home("bin"), :
'"C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-4.0.3/bin/i386/Rterm.exe"' not found
removing 'C:/Users/shiny/OneDrive/Documents/R/win-library/4.0/ggplot2'
Warning in install.packages :
installation of package ‘ggplot2’ had non-zero exit status
Can you post the complete message you get? You might be omitting something relevant.
From what you have posted I can see a potential issue, your package library is in a could synced folder, this brings installation problems very often, try setting your package library in a non synced folder.
