R can't install ggplot2 package

Question

I wanted to install the ggplot2 package using:

install.packages("ggplot2")

and I got R this message:

>  install.packages("ggplot2")
Installation du package dans ‘C:/Users/User/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.3’
(car ‘lib’ n'est pas spécifié)
trying URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/4.3/ggplot2_3.4.2.zip'
Content type 'application/zip' length 4294341 bytes (4.1 MB)
downloaded 1.4 MB

Warning in install.packages :
  downloaded length 0 != reported length 0
Warning in install.packages :
  URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/4.3/ggplot2_3.4.2.zip': Timeout of 60 seconds was reached
Error in download.file(url, destfile, method, mode = "wb", ...) : 
  download from 'https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/4.3/ggplot2_3.4.2.zip' failed
Warning in install.packages :
  le téléchargement du package ‘ggplot2’ a échoué
> `

Then I tried the URL 'https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/4.3/ggplot2_3.4.2.zip' and I downloaded the ggplot2 zip file. I tried to install from the zip file using :

`install.packages("C:/Users/User/Downloads/Compressed/ggplot/ggplot2_3.4.2.zip", repos = NULL)`

I still got an error message. I have also downloaded and installed Rtools but I still cannot install the GGPLOT2 package. I restarted R then and make sure to run install.package("ggplot2") before anything else. I got error message again

Can you help to solve the problem, please ? Thank you in advance
