The first thing to try is

update.packages("rlang")

You should first update your rlang package, current version is 0.3.0.1

install.packages("rlang")

the issue is resolved by updating Rstudio to lattest version.

Hi @softlinkuk! Is it possible you mean that you updated R to the latest version? (A good idea in this case, I’d agree!)

Your version of the RStudio IDE shouldn’t have anything to do with this problem. See: Differentiating R from RStudio
