Installing package into ‘\\nmbu.no/my/Home/Documents/R/win-library/3.5’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
also installing the dependencies ‘BH’, ‘cellranger’, ‘progress’, ‘rmarkdown’, ‘selectr’, ‘dbplyr’, ‘lubridate’, ‘modelr’, ‘readr’, ‘readxl’, ‘reprex’, ‘rvest’, ‘xml2’
There is a binary version available but the source version is later:
binary source needs_compilation
modelr 0.1.2 0.1.3 FALSE
It does install lots of dependencies (I can't put because number of link restriction) and when it get to this one:
We don't have enough information to help you because, you are not showing any error message, try pasting the output between three backticks like this ( I already did that with your original post)
I am sorry Andres for the lack of information not very experienced on this here is the output that I get after
This command install.packages("tidyverse", dependencies = TRUE )
is:

The issue is that it stays like that for hours and it looks that it doesn't finish to install the package (I see the red "stop" icon active). My OS is Windows 10 Enterprise, 64-bit. Rstudio version is 1.1.463 and R version is 3.5.2 (2018-12-20)"
Is this a network drive? If so, it can be very challenging to run R with packages loaded on a network drive. Is it possible to set your R Home directory to a local drive?
One way is to put your library that holds your packages under your C:\ drive. I have done this on my computer that uses a shared network.
You do this by:
Create a folder called library on your C:\ drive. For instance, I have one here: C:\Users\xfilwas\R\library
In windows, create an environment variable called R_LIBS_USER and use your path to the library on the C:\ drive as value. Just search for edit environment variable and create a new one.
By doing this RStudio won't search your shared network (making RStudio slow) for the packages.
Hi, thanks for the suggestion I tried to do that but it looks that I don't have such as privileges in the system. when I go to edit environment variable windows tells me "the requested action requires elevation".
Yes, you might need administrator privelege to edit environtment variables. It's different from system to system. But yeah, find someone friendly at your IT-deparment When I have talked to IT-departments I tell them about R and Open Source and what it is to give them some background on why I need administrator rights.
