Unable to install package

The package will not install on my device. I am running Windows 10 and trying to install the package on R 4.0.0. I receive the following error message:

Error: Failed to install 'velox' from GitHub:
(converted from warning) installation of package ‘C:/Users/KJXMO/AppData/Local/Temp/Rtmp888zFR/file217c43367f7b/velox_0.2.0.9002.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status

Any advice on how to get the package to install will be highly appreciated.

In case you have not realized, this is a depreciated package and is not available at R >= 4.0. If you want functionality only available in this package you will need to revert your version of R to one that will support the C++ compile. I would recommend identifying the specific task you are after and finding a different package. For example, for raster extraction, I have moved to using the exactextractr package.
