While using this script to install metaOmics-

shiny::runApp('metaOmics', port=9987, launch.browser=T)

Getting warning and error like this-

A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere, see the ideas at https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Installing-packages Downloading package from url: https://github.com/metaOmics/preproc/archive/master.zip √  checking for file 'C:\Users\kiit1\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpcDwams\remotes8e05c3224ec\preproc-master/DESCRIPTION' (358ms)

How to solve this issue?

Please use the formatting bar (especially the code option) to present your post better. You can use backticks for inline code (`text` becomes text), or select a chunk of text and use the highlighted button to format it as a code block. If your code has long lines with a single command, break those lines into multiple lines with proper escape sequences so they're easier to read and still run when copy-pasted. I've done it for you this time.

You're using the "quote" option to format code, which is not the right way to do it.

What version of R are you running? You might have to up/down-grade it. As the first line of the warning states: "package ‘DMwR’ is not available for this version of R". So either find a copy of the package appropriate to your version of R from somewhere or install a version of R supported by the package.

You've already been asked to not delete posts (looks like you did that multiple times and were asked to stop that multiple times) that have received a comment/answer. Consider this your final warning - continued deletion of posts will lead to suspension of your user account.
