[R] Rgui.exe cannot be set as default program under Vista wtih R2.10.1
Dear moderators, when I installed the latest version of R (R2.10.1) under Microsoft Vista (service pack 2), I ran into problems associating Rgui.exe with .RData files. On doubleckicking such files in explorer, they open in a Rterm window. Trying to associate Rgui.exe with the Rdata files via control panel / default programs does not work - Rgui is not added to the list of recommended programs. I tried installing R both with file associations and without. Opening Rgui.exe (eg. via shortcut) and then opening the RData files works, however. Under my last R version (R 2.8.1), I had no problems. I can't find hints in the help files so far. Best regards and thanks for your help, Heike Schmitt ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heike Schmitt IRAS, Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences Utrecht University IRAS - VPH PO Box 80175 3508 TD Utrecht The Netherlands Tel 0031 30 253 5372 Fax 0031 30 253 2365 email h.schmitt@uu.nl <mailto:h.schmitt@uu.nl> [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Select RGui there.
