General

Hi, I have been having problem updating dplyr for a few days, now tidyverse stops working, could anyone help me out? Thank you so much!

updating dplyr gives:
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'dplyr'

  • removing 'C:/Users/xiaoq/Documents/R/win-library/3.6/dplyr'
  • restoring previous 'C:/Users/xiaoq/Documents/R/win-library/3.6/dplyr'
    Warning in install.packages :
    installation of package ‘dplyr’ had non-zero exit status

calling tidyverse gives:
library(tidyverse)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘tidyverse’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]):
namespace ‘dplyr’ 0.8.1 is already loaded, but >= 0.8.2 is required

Can you post the whole message you get when you try to install dplyr?

It seems to be an issue with the compiler, can you try reinstalling Rtools? Also, do you have any particular reason for using 32 bit R?

I have updated Rtools, and reinstall R (64bit), still gave me the same error when installing dplyr, is there anything that I could try?

It shouldn't be the same error since you are now using a 64bit version, try removing the 32 bit version (Including the package library).

Yes, it worked! I restarted my computer and now it is working, really appreciate your help!!!
