Error Information: Error in install.packages : Updating loaded packages and package ‘dplyr’ is in use and will not be installed

Description of issue - The package I am trying to use is constantly coming up saying that there is no package to use that function. I try to library it and it says that it is not installed. I try to install it and it says that it is in use.

I get this sometimes, try restarting your R session (Session > Restart R session) then run install.packages in a new session.
