Error: Specified directory cannot be found: ~/bin/treetagger/bin about korpus HOT 4 CLOSED

it's a bit hard to say without knowing anything about your setup, but does the directory ~/bin/treetagger/bin actually exist? if "directory cannot be found" comes up, it usually means you need to check your TreeTagger location. a correct TreeTagger installation would also contain a bin directory below it's root directory.

assuming you're using GNU/linux, what does the command ls -l ~/bin/treetagger show?

This is what I get with the following:

PSY-078GG7:~ dwlab$ ls -l Desktop/TreeTagger/bin
total 440

-rwxr-xr-x@ 1 dwlab staff 72940 Apr 8 2019 train-tree-tagger
-rwxr-xr-x@ 1 dwlab staff 75028 Apr 8 2019 tree-tagger
-rwxr-xr-x@ 1 dwlab staff 71052 Apr 8 2019 tree-tagger-flush
But even if I use ~Desktop/TreeTagger/bin/tree-tagger, I get the same error.
tagged.text <- treetag(
"sample_text.txt",
treetagger="manual",
lang="en",
TT.options=list(
path="~Desktop/TreeTagger/bin/tree-tagger",
preset="en"
),
doc_id="sample"
)

looks like you have installed TreeTagger to Desktop/TreeTagger, you shouldn't point treetag() to ~/bin/treetagger.
also, you must not omit a / after ~ because ~Desktop will be interpreted as a directory with a tilde as it's first character, but ~/Desktop means the directory Desktop in your home directory, which is what you want.

so using path="~/Desktop/TreeTagger" should do the trick.

That did the trick! Thanks so much.
