----------------------------------------

             Summary: Removing files after reading them in R
                 Key: ARROW-17208
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-17208
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: R
    Affects Versions: 7.0.1
            Reporter: Wytze Gelderloos


In R it's not possible to delete the files eventhough the dataframe is cleared 
from the R environment. 

 
write.csv(mtcars, file = "mtcars.csv", quote = FALSE, row.names = FALSE)
df <- arrow::to_duckdb(arrow::open_dataset("mtcars.csv", format = "csv", 
delimiter = ","))

df <- df %>% select(c("mpg", "disp", "drat", "wt")) %>% collect()

## Do some checks on df.

rm(df)
file.remove("mtcars.csv")

The `file.remove` leads to a Permission Denied error eventhough the dataframe 
is cleared from the R environment.
