Save csv file mantaining colnames in R

I have a dataframe with column names and row names assgined. I tried to save the dataframe with write.csv and write.table, but when I open the csv file in excel the row of the colum names is on more rows. This doesn't represent a problem for me if when I reload the dataframe in R it does not give me other issues. I reloaded the data with read.csv, if I set header=FALSE strange things happen, if I use header=TRUE, when I use view(), the dataframe looks ok. But if I try to extract rows from it, it always gives me the first row ( the one with column names). I tried to save the column names in a vector, delete the row from the dataset and rename it with colnames(df)=.., but it does not let me rename it. What can I do? First I uploaded a csv file and I've done some operations to it

data = read.csv("movie.csv",header=TRUE)
#head(data)
attach(data)
bipartite_network=data[,c("director_name","actor_1_name","actor_2_name","actor_3_name")]
d1=data[,c("director_name","actor_1_name")]
d2=data[,c("director_name","actor_2_name")] 
d3=data[,c("director_name","actor_3_name")]
names(d1)=names(d2)
names(d3)=names(d2)
network=rbind(d1,d2)
network=rbind(network,d3)
network=distinct(network)
actors=as.data.frame(network[,2])
actors=distinct(actors)
dim_col=dim(actors)[1][1]
directors=as.data.frame(network[,1])
directors=distinct(directors)
dim_row=dim(directors)[1][1]

adj_matrix=matrix(0,dim_row,dim_col)
colnames(adj_matrix)=actors[,1]
rownames(adj_matrix)=directors[,1]

for(i in 1:(dim(network)[1])){
  adj_matrix[network[i,1],network[i,2]]=1

}


# count=0
# for(i in 1:dim(adj_matrix)[1]){
#   for(j in 1: dim(adj_matrix)[2]){
#     if(adj_matrix[i,j]==1){
#       count=count+1
#     }
#     
#   }}

g=graph.incidence(adj_matrix,weighted = NULL)
csv_graph=as.data.frame(adj_matrix)

col_sums=colSums(csv_graph)
row_sums=rowSums(csv_graph)
reduced_graph=adj_matrix[!(row_sums<10),]
reduced_graph2=adj_matrix[,!(col_sums<5)]
reduced_graph2=t(reduced_graph2)

#eliminate missing value
reduced_graph=reduced_graph[,!(colnames(reduced_graph)=="")]
reduced_graph2=reduced_graph2[,!(colnames(reduced_graph2)=="")]


write.csv(reduced_graph2,"actor_director_reduced_network.csv",col.names = TRUE,row.names = TRUE)
write.csv(reduced_graph,"director_actor_reduced_network.csv",col.names = TRUE,row.names = TRUE)

But after I saved it if I open it I obtain what you can see in the following screen:

enter image description here

Then :

network=read.csv("director_actor_reduced_network.csv", header=TRUE)
head(network)

You need to pass col.names=NA.

From the 'write.table' help file:

By default there is no column name for a column of row names. If ‘col.names = NA’ and ‘row.names = TRUE’ a blank column name is added, which is the convention used for CSV files to be read by spreadsheets.

Just one of those quirks of R you need to learn/remember. Or look up every time (like I seem to have to).

======== Edit ========

Your updated description indicates that your spreadsheet may not be working right. Make sure the files are named with the ".csv" extension and that your spreadsheet program is using commas to delineate cells.

If that doesn't work, we are going to need a better description of the problem.
