Hi Deepti, can you restart your R session (and, also, preferably, your computer), and then re-try using:

BiocManager::install('limma')

Then, please show the error message and also the output of sessionInfo(). Also, please let us know whether or not you are using a personal, shared, or corporate computer?

Hi, it is possible that your anti-malware software denies the permission. Check your anti-malware software if R/Rstudio is not blacklisted or running RStudio as administrator.

Are you using regular R or R Studio? Please try regular R, and by running this (R) with Admin privileges.

Could also try to download the ZIP to a local drive (https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/bin/windows/contrib/4.0/limma_3.46.0.zip), and then install via install.packages('limma_3.46.0.zip')

Hi,

Try installing R stuff in a folder at the root of the disk C:. On my personal computer, I created a folder called opt in C:\ and install R there.

When installing, quit all RStudio sessions and check that only core packages are loaded. Typically, I use a fresh RStudio project to install packages when I get some errors (due to already loaded packages).

Never been bored by errors since.

Best.
