Library(tidyverse) results in error on R Studio

I've had the same experience (but with other packages).

In a lot of cases, there were other R terminals or gui's open that somehow conflicted. Closing down the other R instances and installing solved the issue for about a dozen people.

As for now a possible workaround is using the previous version of tidyverse, and since I just had to google how to do that I thought I'd leave it here:

devtools::install_version("tidyverse", version = "1.1.0", repos = "http://cloud.r-project.org")

This should do the trick. Please note that there are two separate versions of this issue:

RStudio is outdated and does not have the getThemeInfo function
Whatever the source for the issue in this thread is, with the difference being the missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed part.

At least that's my current understanding, also based on having held an "intro to R" course where this issue came up a bunch. Interestingly only on windows, not on macOS or Ubuntu.
