Installation error DatastreamDSWS2R in R / There is no package called 'DatastreamDSWS2R'

Hello, I have tried to install the DatastreamDSWS2R package by downloading the zip file first and then calling install("Myfilepath/DatastreamDSWS2R-master"). When I do this, I get the following error (see screenshot). It says there is no package called 'DatastreamDSWS2R'. Could you help me out with this, please? Any help would be appreciated.

Hello @andre.dragosch

Assuming that you are using DatastreamDSWS2R library from GitHub page. Did you follow an installation instruction in README.md file yet? Please note that you can submit the library installation issue in GitHub Issue page directly.

Dear Wasin, Thanks for your reply! I have asked the guys on Github directly. There seems to be an issue with the devtools function "install_github" and "install" with R versions 3.6.1 and higher. After I have re-installed version 3.4.3 the installation of the DatastreamDSWS2R package worked. I have still connectivity issues with the Datastream server but that's another issue. :-) Anyways, thanks again for your help.
