What output message you get if you run this command?

install.packages("rlang")

I am not getting any output the r just restarts

Error in install.packages : Updating loaded packages

i updated r lang but i have new error

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘tidyverse’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]): namespace ‘vctrs’ 0.2.4 is already loaded, but >= 0.3.0 is required

Lather, rinse, repeat.

You have, tragically, found yourself in dependency hell. The only thing to do is keep installing packages and try again until everything works.

Glad it worked out for you!

I ran into a very similar problem with tidyverse and dplyr (I tried updating dependencies but it started giving me a new error and no longer allowed that either) and what I found to be the fix was updating R and RStudio. This fixed everything. Just to keep in mind for the future!
