Cross-post: I've already asked this question on StackOverflow here but was referred to RStudio GitHub which referred me here.
I use a separate installation of R for each project. To make RStudio use the right one I click and hold down the Control key when I start RStudio. This opens a "Choosing R Installation" pop-up where I can select the R binary I need.
The problem is that - unlike in this RStudio support article - the pop-up shows only the very last version of R that I used. So whenever I switch projects I have to browse to the R binary that I need.
Is there a way to make RStudio remember the other R versions I've used?
If there isn't, where does RStudio look for the last used one? If I knew that, I could probably use a script to overwrite it before launching RStudio.
Some details:
-
I am on Windows 7/10.
-
RStudio version is 1.3.1093
-
None of the registry keys described in "R fow Windows FAQ" are set.
