How to install R packages in R provided by my school - r

My university provides access to RStudio via VPN. I can access but I can't install packages I usually can install on my PC. I know it's broad question, but any ideas on what to do?
This is what I get when I try to install:
> install.packages("tm")
Warning in install.packages :

Would you like to use a personal library instead? (y/n) y

Ask your root user to make "/sscc/opt/R-3.3.2/lib64/R/library" path writable.
sudo chmod 777 /sscc/opt/R-3.3.2/lib64/R/library

Problems installing R package heplots

I tried to install R package "heplots" in R 4.1.3 using Rstudio but I get the following error:
Warning in install.packages :
unable to access index for repository https://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib:
cannot open destfile 'C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpiIlWmJ\file821048e42b13', reason 'No such file or directory'

Warning in install.packages :

This appeared when I used the install.packages function. If I download the .tar.gz file from CRAN and try to install it that way I get this message:
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/guill/Documents/R/win-library/4.1’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
ERROR: dependency 'car' is not available for package 'heplots'
* removing 'C:/Users/myuser/Documents/R/win-library/4.1/heplots'
Warning in install.packages :
installation of package ‘C:/Users/myuser/Downloads/heplots_1.3-9.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status
So I thought that if I install "car" then it would work. The problem is that the same happens with car and a lot of new dependenies appear (also the imports need to be installed), and when I try to install those manually they also have their own dependencies that need installing. I surrendered after the fourth layer of dependencies. Anyone knows how it should be done or am I stuck on manual dependency hell?

Cannot use install.packages

Good afternoon ,
I have a problem with install.packages , for example :
install.packages("caret")
Warning in install.packages :
unable to access index for repository cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib:
scheme not supported in URL 'cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/PACKAGES'
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/Mouad/Documents/R/win-library/3.5’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
unable to access index for repository cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib:
scheme not supported in URL 'cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/PACKAGES'
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘caret’ is not available (for R version 3.5.0)
Warning in install.packages :
unable to access index for repository cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/3.5:
scheme not supported in URL 'cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/3.5/PACKAGES'
Warning in install.packages :

cannot open URL 'http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/3.5/PACKAGES'
I tried without success :
options(repos='cran.rstudio.com/')
I think the source of pb is that Rtools isn´t properly installed :
Sys.which("make")
make
""
Thank you for help !
