Error in gzfile(file, "rb") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In gzfile(file, "rb") :

re-installing R Studio
downloading the packages and putting them in wd()
tried moving the wd()

I am unable to install any package due to the error mentioned in the title.
I attempt to run the following package :
install.packages("tseries")
However, I then receive the error:
Warning in install.packages 'lib = "C:/Users/santi/OneDrive/Documents/R"' is not writable :
Afterwards, I receive the following pop message:
I proceed to click "yes" bu then I get the following error:
Warning in install.packages cannot create dir 'C:\Users\santi\OneDrive\Documents\R\win-library\3.5\file64444b1a3a3b', reason 'No such file or directory'
I want to be clear that I am using my personal computer and all my settings are set to administrator and I have set all my premissions to my account to "Allow"
I'm new to installing packages and R,
It looks like my devtools library is missing.
I was trying to install swirl,
I got the following message :

I then tried the following :

Error in library(devtools) : there is no package called ‘devtools’
So I downloaded devtools in zip format and tried loading it

I downloaded the devtools zip in the same folder, and renamed it to devtoolz zip
I tried running the command again

What steps should I take to get the devtools installed?
Many thanks! :)
I found a way around this,
In case it helps someone else :
*In Rstudio, it tuns out it is possible to install a package without downloading locally and without pointing to an URL (which I also had tried). Because it is integrated with CRAN-mirrors, I was able to simply type devtools in the box and select it from the existing drop-down menu.
It proved more efficient than trying to manually import it through RGui.*
I had the same issue, I just closed my RStudio and opened it, and it worked.
I am trying to install a R package from zip file using code below:
install.packages("M:/packages/predictCRIS.zip", repos = NULL, type = "win.binary")
I get following error in R

Error in install.packages : cannot open the connection
Can someone have try to install/troubleshoot it?
