This question is at best about how R is configured on your computer, but far
more likely the problem lies in your operating system, which you have not
identified and details of which are off-topic here anyway.
If you use getwd() to identify which directory you are in, or pay attention to
which directories you are specifying, then you have to examine the permissions
on each such directory using whatever tools your operating system gives you to
learn about those directories. Regardless, fixing permissions problems is
off-topic here.
