Thank you! I think it is an issue with my OneDrive account, but I am not sure how to get around this.

Hello Annika,
Welcome to the forums! :qiime2:
As far as I can tell, you are installing these packages into a OneDrive folder... is that correct?
My guess is that the automatic sync functions of OneDrive are interfering with the R install. It's best to install software to a folder only on that computer, and use OneDrive to sync and share input data and output results, not all the temporary files and installed libraries needed by R.

Thank you @colinbrislawn that worked. I deletes R and reinstalled it out of OneDrive and used the local R as the default for package installations and it works now!
Thank you!
