Problem with install.packages ("stringi") on R

On windows 10, RStudio. I've tried using the command install.packages, but it aways appear this messages:

 There is a binary version available but the source version is later:

Warning in install.packages :
  installation of package ‘stringi’ had non-zero exit status

The downloaded source packages are in
    ‘C:\Users\Natusha\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpuSXwbu\downloaded_packages’

What can I do? I tried downloading and pasting the folder directly on the library, but it did not work. I also tried

install.packages("stringi", type = "source")

options(install.packages.check.source = "no")

But the same message appear. Can someone help me?

If you are on Windows, stick to binary packages if the source install fails (and you do not want the source package).

install.packages ("stringi", type = "win.binary")
