Run R as the Administrator.  Install the packages.  Then run as an ordinary
user.

Subject: [R] Install Packages in Windows Vista


I can't seem to install packages to R. Each time I get the following
output...for example

bundle 'VR' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked

The downloaded packages are in
        C:\Users\DarkBlue\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpQrD7Le\downloaded_packages
updating HTML package descriptions
Warning message:
In file.create(f.tg) :
  cannot create file 'C:\PROGRA~1\R\R/doc/html/packages.html', reason
'Permission denied'
