Thank you for the check of the CRAN builds. I also checked that as a first step. Perhaps there is some difference between the CRAN setups, as I have reproduced this on 3 Windows 10 machines with clean installs of R 4.2.0, and it has been reported by other users. I also noted in the post that building and installing via devtools reports success ( ** testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location ), however, a subsequent attempt to load hangs.
One possible difference is the version of Windows 10. The UTF8 handling was described in the NEWS file this way:
"R uses UTF-8 as the native encoding on recent Windows systems (at least Windows 10 version 1903, Windows Server 2022 or Windows Server 1903). As a part of this change, R uses UCRT as the C runtime. UCRT should be installed manually on systems older than Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016 before installing R."
Conceivably the systems where this fails don't have the new UCRT runtime. I believe running Windows Update should get it.
If it doesn't, or for users on an older Windows version, this page lets you download it: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48234 .

I'm unable to show the failure since it simply hangs at the prompt with CPU spinning and memory cyclically ramping and declining. One has to kill R. The posted commands show the workaround, not the failure. I since found that just changing the LC_COLLATE is enough to allow the library to load :Sys.setlocale('LC_COLLATE','English')[1] "English_United States.1252"Sys.getlocale()[1] "LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252;LC_CTYPE=English_United States.utf8;LC_MONETARY=English_United States.utf8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=English_United States.utf8" Again, apologies for my naivety.

You attempted to use the function Simplex and it was not found. That indicates the package is not loaded, but not why. What you should show are the messages you get when you start a clean copy of R and immediately attempt to load the package using library(). It's helpful that you posted sessionInfo(); I'd include that again with the new information, in case anything is different.
