Here's what seems to be failing for you [*]: # prepare directory for discovery of available packages dir <- tempfile("rstudio-available-packages-") dir.create(dir, showWarnings = FALSE) # create a file in that directory saveRDS(Sys.time(), file = file.path(dir, "time.rds")) # (This doesn't fail because we keep executing the function, so the # directory must exist!) # move there owd <- setwd(dir) # this somehow fails Is it an option to disable OneDrive for the home directory? It's clearly doing something terrible to your temporary files. If not, it should be possible to create a separate temporary directory on your computer (the path must not contain spaces) and list it in the .Renviron file in the home directory as the TMPDIR variable: TMPDIR=C:/my/R/temp/directory See help(Startup) for more information on .Renviron. Alternatively, we may try to perform some debugging. If you set options(error = recover) and run .rs.availablePackages() again, it should fail and give you a debugger prompt. Choose the deepest option in the call stack and try to find out the value of the `dir` variable. Does dir.exists(dir) still return TRUE? Does setwd(dir) still fail? Can you open the directory in the Windows Explorer? The last but not the least, do you see some of the same problems if you launch Rgui.exe instead of RStudio? -- Best regards, Ivan [*] https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/blob/45af283a7a5853399904ddc438f6cd89d9b5c137/src/cpp/session/modules/SessionPackages.R#L1625-L1636 ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
