Now that I have installed R outside "Program files" to get past the
permissions problem, there are packages I can only access from certain
working directories:
> setwd("U:/Calc/zTemp") # "U:" points to a USB hard drive
> library(splines) # ok
> library(locfdr)
Error in library(locfdr) : there is no package called 'locfdr'
> setwd("C:/Users/dbickel/Documents")
> library(locfdr) # ok
The same error occurs whether or not I run R as administrator. Is there a
work around or better solution?

Thanks, Joris. Your suggestion solved the problem without requiring me to
run R as an administrator.
Best regards,

Hi,
I am running Windows 7 and R 2.11.1, and everything is installing just
fine for me. Did you install R in the "Program Files" folder? If so,
uninstall and try to re-install R in another folder (e.g.
c:\R\R2.11.1\ like on my computer). I noticed in the past that the
access control of Windows treats the "Program Files" folder different
compared to other folders.
Cheers
