Error installing ggbiplot in R version 4.2.1


I am trying to install the ggbiplot package in the 4.2.1 version of R. Using this code
library(devtools)
Sys.setenv("R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS"="true")
install_github("vqv/ggbiplot")

The downloaded binary packages are in
C:\Users\19156\AppData\Local\Temp\Rtmp2nGWmP\downloaded_packages
