R help - Nov 2019 - Creating map in R

Creating map in R. I have all the files (with different extensions)
for the country I need. The problem is that I don?t know how to use
them in R. I began according to information on the Internet, and
immediately ran into difficulties (see below):

`library("tmaptools")
geo <- read_shape("Rom.shp", as.sf = TRUE)
This function is deprecated and has been migrated to
github.com/mtennekes/oldtmaptools`

I turned to a similar function, but get an UNCLEAR message

`library(raster)
geo <- shapefile ("Rus.shp")
Error in .local(x, ...) : file.exists(extension(x, ".shx")) is not
TRUE`

If you READ the Posting Guide mentioned at the bottom of each post you would
know that there is a more appropriate mailing list for questions about maps and
R where experts in that topic hang out.

Yep, I had that same thought after I posted a reply to the OP.  Not to
discourage anybody from reading the posting guide, but a quick look at
it suggests that the following might be useful in this case:
