Dears
Thanks a lot , I understand that may be Rcmdr is not ‘adapted’ to run
with R
3.5.3 so I will try to update R version to 3.6.2 or use the oldest
version of R I
used in the past.
The Rcmdr worked perfectly fine with R 3.5.3 about a year ago but it's
possible that you've installed incompatible versions of some packages.
As a general matter, keeping R up-to-date isn't a bad idea.
Best,
John
I will let you know the outcome
Best regards
Toufik

have not
invoked checkpoint or adjusted the "repos" option... and if the latter
then they
may be encountering package incompatibilities with R 3.5.3 that should
have
been caught with a minimum R-version spec in the Rcmdr package.
