Problem installing devtools package

think about giving up the course because of the error in the library(devtools)

I've tried everything. I can only perform tasks in RStudioCLoud

if it is not possible to perform the week 5 task in RStudioCloud, I will give up. It's possible

in the PC will not!

I tried everything.

I will stop paying the course, if it doesn't work!

this is the error that is always repeated:

see attached image

I've done all the commands below (see below) and logged in with a local Windows account. I tried to change folder names on the pc. I tried to install and uninstall the programs

tried all these commands:

install.packages ("devtools")

library (devtools)

install.packages ("dplyr")

install.packages ("ggplot2")

install.packages ("shiny")

install_github ("StatsWithR / statsr")

install.packages ("dplyr")

install.packages ("ggplot2")

install.packages ("shiny")

install_github ("StatsWithR / statsr")

install.packages ("devtools", type = "binary")

install.packages ("dplyr", type = "binary")

install.packages ("rmarkdown", type = "binary")

install.packages ("ggplot2", type = "binary")

install.packages ("broom", type = "binary")

install.packages ("gridExtra", type = "binary")

install.packages ("shiny", type = "binary")

install.packages ("cubature", type = "binary")

install.packages ("tidyr", type = "binary")

library (devtools)

install.packages ("statsr", type = "binary")

I lost hours of my life. I am very bad and without receiving any support. I tried to read all the forum articles and I couldn't. I texted the mentor and nothing.

if it is not possible to perform the week 5 task in RStudioCloud, I will give up. It's possible?

If someone help! Thanks!

my guess is the issue is with the non-standard characters in the username.
If this is your own local pc, can you add a new profile with an englishal-phabet only user name ? My guess is this is the easiest thing to try with the highest likelihood of success.

I'll try! thank you!

Thanks a lot!I did a million things and just change the windows user. everything worked normal. You dear anonymous, saved my life.

You're welcome.

However, it would be nice if there was a simple 'within R' solution but I haven't found it yet....
If anyone out there knows please share with us.

Yeah, I agree. People like me who speak Portuguese and have spellings in the language, end up harming themselves. The rest I got everything very quickly, but it was still a sad time lost.

Hi, then ask to some expert they will help you
