I wanted to add a suggestion here that when or if you add multiple R versions from non-standard paths to your PATH environment variable in Windows (to enable Emacs or any program to find the R executable) - it is important to make sure the desired version of R is the First path. Programs will stop looking for the executable once it is found, and if an earlier R version is found before the desired version - that is what would start up. > Your (from description) Windows system appears confused about where to find > R, and doubly so as a 32/64 bit convention is dead, and there is only 64bit. > > On operating systems that use $PATH you can _always_ just point to a working > R by pointing RHOME/bin so that the right R is found.
