R installation problem

Hi Travis:

I think for anyone to be able to help,  you need to provide the OS version you are running,  on which hardware  (Intel or Apple),  which link you used to download the installer,  and the exact error message you get.

Thanks,

-Roy

Hi, officers,

I can't install R as the installer always shows 'The installation failed. The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail'. I have tried several times and restarted my computer, but it didn't work. The window says I should contact the software manufacturer for help, so I am here to ask for help. I am in a hurry to install it because I need it to finish my school assignment for the R-related course at my university. If you need any extra information, please email me, and I'll respond as soon as possible.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks!

Travis Xiao
