Hi @Moriand , thanks for the report, though I am not entirely sure what the problem is. To build readspss from git on Windows you require Rtools which is a compiler set. See https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/

If you want to install only a binary package, have a look at my draft repo see the Readme for instructions.
