Can't find documentation for any package in R

I've been using R for a while now, but all of a sudden the help() command doesn't work anymore. This is what I get when I try ?tidyverse for instance (the package is obviously installed), but I can't access the documentation for some reason (won't work with ANY package)

?tidyverse No documentation for ‘tidyverse’ in specified packages and libraries: you could try ‘??tidyverse’

I've googled this extensively and I have no idea on what I'm doing wrong?

You might not have loaded the packages. Try

library(tidyverse)
?tidyverse
