Can't remove .Rproj.user folder from untracked changes

I can't remove .Rproj.user folder from untracked changes.

I tried using git clean -d -f to remove the .Rproj.user folder from untracked changes. The terminal responds that it is 'Removing .Rproj.user'. But when I run git status again the .Rproj.user is still listed under untracked files.

As @evolutionxbox says, you need to ignore this folder. This means you have to list it in the .gitignore file.
You can do it manually or better use ; usethis::use_git_ignore(".Rproj.user") This should do the trick. To know more about using git with R, I recommend reading this website : happygitwithr.com/
