This has nothing to do with the fact that you are dealing with a zip file and everything to do with the "s" in "https", and all the solutions I have seen involve knowing what operating system you are using. I highly recommend that you study what Google has to say when you include that detail and leave out the zip keyword. -- Sent from my phone. Please excuse my brevity.

Hi again, I was following the instruction available in "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3053833/using-r-to-download-zipped-data-file-extract-and-import-data" to download data from Internet contained in a zip file from the address : https://npscra.nsdl.co.in/download.php?path=download/&filename=NAV_File_23122016.zip However when I tried to follow the instruction I am facing below error :
temp <- tempfile()
download.file("https://npscra.nsdl.co.in/download.php?path=download/&filename=NAV_File_23122016.zip",temp)
Error in
download.file("https://npscra.nsdl.co.in/download.php?path=download/&filename=NAV_File_23122016.zip",
:
unsupported URL scheme
Can someone here please tell me what went wrong in above?
Highly appreciate your feedback.
Thanks for your time.
