Looks like you don't have administrator permission, try to get them first and then try again,

If your account has local admin privileges then right click on R-studio icon and use "run as administrator". Looks like you are using Windows so this should work.

Read about lib argument of install.packages(), and set it to a directory where you have write access.

lib - character vector giving the library directories where to install the packages. Recycled as needed. If missing, defaults to the first element of .libPaths().
