[R] Error: cannot remove prior installation of package ‘BiocManager’
Dear all, I am working R version 4.0.1 macos catalina , I?m not able to load libraries e.g ggplot2 Error: Error: package or namespace load failed for ?ggplot2? in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]): there is no package called ?gtable? Then i tried installing gtable, But installation is showing error : Error in install.packages : cannot remove prior installation of package ?gtable? This is also for other packages like BiocManager, when I manually changed the name or removed the BiocManager from the library, the package was smoothly installed. Any pointers on how to solve this problem without manual removal of packages. remove.packages command is also not working. Thanks in advance.

The packages must not be loaded when you try to update.
