Can't load installed package - r

I wanted to remove a package and then reinstall it because there were new functions I wanted, but now I seem to have a compatibility issue I cannot get rid of.
I did:
remove.packages("dplyr")
install.packages("dplyr")
library(dplyr)
But I get:
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘dplyr’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]):
namespace ‘rlang’ 0.4.6 is already loaded, but >= 0.4.7 is required
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘dplyr’ was built under R version 3.6.3
How can I update this rlang package and successfully load dplyr?

Why do I get this error when loading library tidyverse?

Yesterday I loaded tidyverse` as usual, but not I get the following error:
library(tidyverse)
Warning: package ‘tidyverse’ was built under R version 4.1.3Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘tidyverse’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]): namespace ‘cli’ 3.1.0 is already loaded, but >= 3.4.1 is required
I already updated my packages.
Also, I have tried the following:
remove.packages("tidyverse")
install.packages("tidyverse")
remove.packages("rlang")
install.packages("rlang")
But again, when I load library(tidverse) I get the same error.
At the end, I updated my R version (to 4.2.2) and changed it to RStudio manually: Tools -> Global Options -> R version.

Error loading library tidyverse, dbplyr, ggplot2

I would like to install more packages in RStudio and got a error message. Before, I worked with gglot2 and it worked well. When I tried to install other packages, more errors occure.
I loaded library DBI, vctrs without a problem, then I'm trying:
> library(ggplot2)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘ggplot2’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]):
namespace ‘vctrs’ 0.4.0 is already loaded, but >= 0.5.0 is required
> library(tidyverse)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘tidyverse’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]):
namespace ‘vctrs’ 0.4.0 is already loaded, but >= 0.4.1 is required
> library(lubridate)
> library(dbplyr)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘dbplyr’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]):
namespace ‘cli’ 3.2.0 is already loaded, but >= 3.3.0 is required
I checked all updates, restart R Studio, tried to update vctrs, but anything works. Could anyone help me?
It appears you have old versions of packages installed and loaded.
For example, you have a version of vctrs installed but ggplot2 needs a more recent version. This is especially a problem if you have already called library(vctrs) because the active version of the package is already determined.
The simplest solution is to update your packages. Here are many questions on Stackoverflow about how to do that. Try some of the following links:

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘GGally’

I'm not able to open the GGally package. I keep getting this message:
> library(GGally)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘GGally’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]):
namespace ‘rlang’ 0.4.12 is already loaded, but >= 1.0.0 is required
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘GGally’ was built under R version 4.1.3
I have tried installing GGally like so: install.packages('GGally', dependencies = TRUE), as well as installing rlang. This problem has not arose with any other library.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Loading Packages in R

library(ggplot2)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘ggplot2’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]):
there is no package called ‘vctrs’
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘ggplot2’ was built under R version 3.6.3
library(dplyr)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘dplyr’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]):
there is no package called ‘vctrs’
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘dplyr’ was built under R version 3.6.3
I just looked up at Cran, whether vctrs 0.3.4 exists and it looks like version 0.3.4 only exists for macOS. As I can see from the URL you have posted in the comments you're using the OS Windows. And for Windows only vctrs 0.3.3 exists.
So my suggestion (little bit ugly but well...): Download the zip-src of vctrs 0.3.3 manually and then you can choose in RStudio to install from the zip file you've downloaded.
Or my other suggestion you can use: install.packages.zip("zip-url-manually-copied"), for more look: https://rdrr.io/cran/installr/man/install.packages.zip.html.
Have a good day!
I got solved, I need to upgrade my R. Previously I am using version 3.6.0 and now I upgraded to 4.0.2, after upgrade everything works fine.

Why am I getting an error while trying to load caret package?

I tried:
library(caret)
then I got the error:
Loading required package: ggplot2
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘ggplot2’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]):
namespace ‘rlang’ 0.3.0.1 is already loaded, but >= 0.3.1 is required
Error: package ‘ggplot2’ could not be loaded
In addition: Warning message:
package ‘ggplot2’ was built under R version 3.5.3
so I tried updating the ggplot2 using:
install.package("ggplot")
even after that I am getting the same error. my caret package is also updated.
I think you can try two things. One is updating your R version (and Rstudio version?). The other can be updating ggplot2 with dependencies:
install.packages('ggplot2', dependencies = TRUE)
