  • How did you install Rtools? The `find_rtools` function looks for specific registry keys to verify installation. From the output it would appear those are not present. Specifically it looks for `SOFTWARE\R-core\Rtools` in `HKEY_CURRENT_USER` or `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE` – MrFlick Jul 06 '17 at 15:03
  • I have installed normally, without admin rights, in a personal folder. – kurast Jul 06 '17 at 16:52
  • I assume you downloaded the most recent version? Was there an option during installation to set registry keys? Did you un-select that? Can you use regedit to verify that those keys exist? – MrFlick Jul 06 '17 at 17:58
  • Maybe also let us know which version of devtools you are using? – MrFlick Jul 06 '17 at 17:59

This was a problem in the registry generated during installation, so I reinstalled it and it worked.
