Question

Please help me to install stringr and stringi packages in R. The result is:

Installing package into ‘C:/Users/kozlovpy/Documents/R/         


        

Answer 1

Installing the newest version of Rtools worked for me.

https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/

Answer 2

Sir, I tried this:

install.packages("stringi", dependencies=TRUE, INSTALL_opts = c('--no-lock'))
install.packages("stringr", dependencies=TRUE, INSTALL_opts = c('--no-lock'))

and it worked for me, give it a try!

Answer 3

In my case only combining of two options worked:

running as admin and then:

install.packages("stringi", dependencies=TRUE, INSTALL_opts = c('--no-lock'))

Answer 4

u/Joyvalley's answer to a similar question worked. Just run R as superuser and install stringi then:

sudo -i R
