Problem with Rstudio after changing R version

Hello,

I have tried to use an older version of R that Rstudio uses from the "Tools" menu because some package was built on another version. After I changed it, I had to restart Rstudio but it crashes and I cannot use the "Tools" to go back to the previous version I was using menu even though I do see it. My questions are:

  1. How can I get back to the previous more recent version I was using? If possible it would involve not reinstalling Rstudio. I do not have the administrators rights and would like to avoid asking him to do it for me.
  2. After 1) is solved. How can I use an older version without breaking my Rstudio?

I have also copy pasted the big error message I get when I open Rstudio.
