Here is a solution for the posted problem.

Under the Spanish version of Windows 7, inside Windows Explorer, the directory where R is installed appears as

C:\Archivos de programa\R\R-3.1.0\bin\x64

If you wish to compile a personal libary, this suggests you should extend the search path by changing the environmental variable PATH to Path=C:\Archivos de programa\R\R-3.1.0\bin\x64;C:\windows;C:etc......

However, the real name of the directory is not "Archivos de programa" but "Program files", this will become evident if
you open a DOS window on C:\

So if you change the environmental variable PATH to Path=C:\Program files\R\R-3.1.0\bin\x64;C:\windows;C:etc......

then the problem is over and RCMD INSTALL MyPackages installs MyPackages without the error message

In normalizePath(path.expand(path), winslash, mustWork) :
  path[1]="c:/ARCHIV~1/R/R-31~1.0/library": Acceso denegado

The user running this command has all permissions to modify the
directory C:\Program Files\R\R-3.1.0\library, as is also clear from the
fact that installing a package by install.packages() works.

Any suggestions are welcome.
