Problem with Tidyverse 1.2.1 and R 3.5.1

tidyverse

Please ignore this problem ... I see the issue.

Tidyverse wants an updated dplyr to install, but doing so, does not seem to help (below).

Hi Steve - looks like you are installing dplyr into the "U:/Documents/R/win-library/3.5" directory, but then loading tidyverse from the "C:/Program Files/R/R-3.5.1/library" directory. So the new dplyr you installed isn't being called - the one in "C:/Program Files/R/R-3.5.1/library" is. If you want to have your packages located in "C:/Program Files/R/R-3.5.1/library" there are a couple of things you could try:

install.packages("dplyr",  lib = 'C:/Program Files/R/R-3.5.1/library')
library("tidyverse", lib.loc="C:/Program Files/R/R-3.5.1/library")

If you are still having trouble with that, I'd just try to redownload the tidyverse packages using

install.packages("tidyverse",  lib = 'C:/Program Files/R/R-3.5.1/library')
library("tidyverse", lib.loc="C:/Program Files/R/R-3.5.1/library")

cheers.
