how to install rtools in R Studio Version 1.2.5033 and R 3.6.2 for Windows

[KANOOP]

I tried to install rtool package in RSTUDIO using -> install.packages("rtools")
but the result says
install.packages("rtools")
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/user/Documents/R/win-library/3.6’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘rtools’ is not available (for R version 3.6.2)

Then I downloaded rtools35.exe from CRAN and tried to install from "Package ac=rchive file" instead of the default option of CRAN.

install.packages("C:/ff/Rtools35.zip")

Now the result says
install.packages("C:/ff/Rtools35.zip")
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/user/Documents/R/win-library/3.6’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘C:/ff/Rtools35.zip’ is not available (for R version 3.6.2)

Rtools is not an R package is a separate software, you have to install it like you would install any other software on windows.
