Issues with Knitting : Error in .External2(C_dataviewer, x, title) : unable to start data viewer Calls: <Anonymous> ... withVisible -> eval_with_user_handlers -> eval -> eval -> View Execution halted

I'm trying to knit html, pdf, etc but rather than generate or knit the HTML doc, it is showing a .knit.md file format instead of .HTML format.
Could there be an error within the markdown file/document?

The error message suggests you are including the View() command in the code of your Rmd file, this command opens the data viewer panel in the RStudio IDE but and HTML file does not have such functionality, that is why the knitting process fails. Simply remove that command from your code.
