I get

Warning message:
'golubTrain' is deprecated.
Use 'Golub_Train' instead.
See help("Deprecated")

which means that, in the 2.9.1 version of golubEsets, 'golubTrain' is
marked as deprecated and will, in 2.10.0, disappear in favor of
'Golub_Train'. So my speculation is that your Windows installation has
an incorrect version of the golubEsets package (and perhaps others?)
installed. This is not a good situation, and if true it would pay to
identify how this has occurred (perhaps you set up a library path that
is, inadvertently, shared by all R installations?) and correcting.

Here's my session info, what's yours?
