How to change default user library path for packages

General
1

I've got a user that for some reason is getting a different library path then everyone else. I tried a windows profile refresh, but the settings seemed to follow.

I'm trying to figure out how to change the packages directory for a single user from there "home drive" to a shared drive on the shared environment

You can change the defaul library path by setting your R_LIBS_SITE environmental variable on a .Reviron or .Rprofile file

# For example on Windows would be
R_LIBS_SITE="C:\\Program Files\\R\\R-4.0.2\\library"

But have in mind that very often, R has troubles with shared drives.

where do I Find the .reviron or .rprofile file?

Thanks. I think I was looking at this problem from the wrong angle. I'll setup a new support
