That's very odd. Phew - glad it's working now though!
All I can think is that it was to do with the install process on Windows when an R process is open at the same time with data.table loaded in it. We've had similar issues in the past sometimes where a reboot followed by reinstall of data.table works. The reboot ensures that every last nuance of .dll usage is cleared. And the reboot also ensures that all versions of R are shut down. Linux seems much better at updating shared objects (.so) which are in use by processes, although similar problems have been reported on Linux too when (my best guess is) a zombie process holds up something in the install process. Only one or two reports, mind you.
The error about integer64 suggests that maybe the byte code didn't match up with the DLL code (since that's a new argument). Something like that, anyway, maybe.
