package or namespace load failed for ‘tidyverse’: .onAttach failed in attachNamespace() for 'tidyverse', details: call: loadNamespace(name) error: there is no package called ‘cli’

I am using RStudio version 4.02 (2020-06-22). This version was installed by our IT administrator on my laptop connected to our network.

Since then I am actually blocked and get the error message below.
When trying to call the library for the package "cli" I received an error in library (cli) : thwre is no package called 'cli'

As of the moment I am blocked. Shall I ask for a new re-installation of RStudio?

Thanks

You are confusing your R version with your RStudio version, they are not the same thing.

You are missing the cli package Have you tried to install it? Do you get any error message if you try to install it?

install.packages("cli")

Rstudio is an IDE for the R programming language so reinstalling it would have no effect on you R package library.

Yes, I get an error message when I try to install the 'cli' package, I already tried that but it did not help.

R has problems working with network drives, change your packages library to a local folder instead.

Thank you for your advice. However this time I really went to the office to exploit our network and avoid potemntial connectivity issues.

When installing "tidyverse" I have an error message requesting to install "dbplyr". When I try to install "dbplyr" the execution is interrupted.
