I've never seen a failure in those circumstances.

You should post full details of the next failure: what you did, what versions of R and RStudio you were using, what went wrong.

There's a good chance this is purely an RStudio bug, in which case it would be off-topic here, so if you can reproduce the problem using R.app, that would be important.

When I try to update packages from RStudio using the menu on macOS, some
packages fail to install.

I can fix the issue by reinstalling them manually from source, for example:

install.packages("car", type = "source")
I am wondering whether this is a known macOS/RStudio issue (e.g., related
to binary vs source packages), and whether there is a recommended
workaround or setting.

R version 4.5.2 (2025-10-31) -- "[Not] Part in a Rumble"
Platform: aarch64-apple-darwin20
