Dear sir/madam,
I guess my message finds you well. Please I am having the supposed current
R version 4.6.1 for windows. But after downloading the packages, I find it
difficult loading them on R studio, even though they can be seen under
packages. When ever I tried loading them, it tells me that those packages
were created under R version 4.7.0. Please I need your help to be able to
deal with such problem.
Kind regards,
Halilu Rahaman Alhassan

It sounds as though you downloaded the wrong files, but you don't give
details about how you did the downloads or installed them into R, so I
can't guess how that happened.
The standard safe way to install packages is to run R and then in R run
"install.packages("packagename")". It might ask you to specify a
mirror; generally the first one in the list is safe. On my system, that
is displayed as "0-Cloud".
If you are running RStudio, then you will get somewhat different
behaviour because it inserts its own install.packages() function, but it
should still work. If not, try it in a plain R session.
