I am having trouble with outputting results using DescTools package to word document. Anybody was able to get output saved in a word document as intended in the package? I get the following error. Thank you in advance.

Downloading the source .tar.gz files from the RDCOM website, I was able to install the package by uncompressing the files and then using devtools::install. I'm a little out of date, using R 3.1.0, but it looks like you are too, so it should work as well.

I have a new laptop that was working with R and R studio and then after updating packages I have run into continual issues loading or installing R packages in R studio.
I have tried to uninstall R and R studio deleted all folders associated and then re-installed.
removing and re-installing rlang however it keeps coming up as not properly installed.
Checked my .libPath ()
My question is how do you make sure you have closed everything so you do not have any .dll file open and then therefore so that the installer can overwrite .dll? will this solve my issue?

I am trying to update the dplyr package to resolve a problem with rlang, following relevant advice in the web.
First I removed the previous installation of dplyr with the remove.packages() command.
Then I restarted R Studio.

Go to your R library path (where your packages are stored):
C:\Users\username\Documents\R\win-library\3.5
You can refer to this guide on how to find your R library path.
Next, simply search for dplyr in your folder and delete it. I find that this manual method works for me as opposed to removing packaging via Rstudio. Hope it helps!

Ok, I was able to duplicate the problem on Windows. How and Why?
Resolution - Install R3.4.4
How
Install R3.4.4
Install Rtools3.4.
Launch R
> install.packages("readr")
Why?
The issue here (appears to be) that readr and the TidyVerse packages require later versions of R than R3.2.2. and the WIndows Rtools you have. I was able to duplicate the issue described by installing R3.2.2 and RTools3.2 and then trying to instal readr.
I did not encounter the error on installation of R3.4.4.
Background on Upgrading R on Windows:
You can install multiple versions of R (Base environment) and R Tools (Development environment) on Windows. My personal recommendation is to uninstall R, install the new versions of R, then install the latest R Tools and copy over the libraries per Windows faq below.
R Windows FAQ
2.8 What’s the best way to upgrade?
That’s a matter of taste. For most people the best thing to do is to uninstall R (see the previous Q), install the new version, copy any installed packages to the library folder in the new installation, run update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE, ask=FALSE) in the new R and then delete anything left of the old installation. Different versions of R are quite deliberately installed in parallel folders so you can keep old versions around if you wish.
For those with a personal library (folder R\win-library\x.y of your home directory, R\win64-library\x.y on 64-bit builds), you will need to update that too when the minor version of R changes (e.g. from 3.0.2 to 3.1.0). A simple way to do so is to copy (say) R\win-library\3.0 to R\win-library\3.1 before running update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE, ask=FALSE).
I too had the similar problem and re-installing package "tidyverse" did the trick for me while I was already on 3.4.4 version of R.
For me, it was loading tidyverse into the environment that did the trick. Load both tidyverse and dplyr
I have recently updated both R (version 3.4.1) and RStudio (version 1.0.143) and I am now unable to install packages from Rstudio.
If I install a package in R directly using install.packages() it works fine.
If I try and install a package in Rstudio using either install.packages() or using the package install menu I get the error below. I have tried a few different packages, and have uninstalled and reinstalled both R and RStudio.
To get the error:
Run:
install.packages("lme4")
Output:

also installing the dependencies ‘minqa’, ‘nloptr’, ‘RcppEigen’

This certainly is an issue with your connection:the proxies you are using and repositories configured in your RStudio. I was getting the same error when I was connected to US VPN from India.I disconnected VPN and restarted RStudio and it worked like a charm!
I had the same issue when I tried to install caret.
The best solution is to restart R studio.
Now the install.packages() works fine.
Just restart the R studio it works for me.
I had the same issue after I misspelled a package name when trying to install it. I restarted R Studio and then it worked.
Kindly select appropriate CRAN mirror in R Studio through following option:
Tools>>>Packages>>>CRAN Mirror(Select appropriate CRAN depending on your location).
A simple solution would be to download manually the zip folder of the package and install it with the command :
install.packages('package.zip', lib='destination_directory',repos = NULL)
Package zip : the path to the zip file of the package
Destination_directory: where the packages are installed by default like C:/Users/unknown/Documents/R/win-library/3.3
Hope it helps
I'm trying to install the package PerformanceAnalytics using the following code in a Jupyter Notebook, which I've used to install many packages successfully, such as ggplot2, with the following code:
install.packages("PerformanceAnalytics", repos='http://cran.r-project.org')
But I read on many other questions that adding dependencies=TRUE would solve the issue. Unfortunately, it did not. I keep getting the following error message.
install.packages("PerformanceAnalytics", repos='http://cran.r-project.org',
dependencies=TRUE)
Warning message in install.packages("PerformanceAnalytics", repos =
"http://cran.r-project.org"): “installation of package ‘PerformanceAnalytics’

The package installs without a problem in the R app and RStudio. Is there something I'm missing that Jupyter requires for this specific package? I'm using macOS 10.12.5. Below is the info when I run sessionInfo().

The solution from the question at Is it possible to install bioconductor package 'rain' in R Jupyter notebook? solved my issue as well. I was using Anaconda's version of R. I uninstalled Anaconda and instead installed Jupyter Notebook and IRkernal manually which resolved my issue. See the answer from the above link for full details.
