Thanks for the report, but please try to provide more information and 
diagnose a bit of the problem on your own - this is a very rare problem, 
many people use R on Windows 10, the 64-bit version. There must be 
something special about your installation, your operating system, etc 
and unless someone finds out what it is, the issue can't be fixed. You 
will see that if you install a clean version of stock Windows 10 in a 
virtual machine and install R 4.0.2 or R-devel from the CRAN installer, 
it will work.

PR16515 was for a much older version of R, for a different version of 
Windows, with detailed info of what was happening. Still, without any 
clue why, and as nobody who could find out why could reproduce, it is 
still open.

Thanks
Tomas
