Dear William, Perhaps you could try to set the variable R_LIBS_USER to some local folder. I do not know how to do this on Windows, but there seems to be some guys in this rstudio discussion thread that came to some sort of a conclusion: https://community.rstudio.com/t/help-regarding-package-installation-renviron-rprofile-r-libs-r-libs-site-and-r-libs-user-oh-my/13888/8 Since long ago, I have had this line in my ~/.zshrc.local :) [ -e /usr/bin/Rscript ] && R_LIBS_USER=`Rscript -e 'cat(Sys.getenv("R_LIBS_USER"))'` Best, Rasmus ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
