R (v4.2.0) graphics engine version 15 is not supported by RStudio-server 2022.02.3+492 - on Ubuntu 20.04

Hello,
I am using rstudio-server on ubuntu 20.04 WSL, and after updating R to v4 I got the following warning:

Warning message:
R graphics engine version 15 is not supported by this version of RStudio. The Plots tab will be disabled until a newer version of RStudio is installed.

I then uninstalled RStudio-server using

sudo apt-get remove rstudio-server -y

and installed the latest version ( 2022.02.3+492) from here .

Installation was successful but the warning is still present.

I see from the reply to this post that graphics engine v15 support has already been added to Rstudio in 2021, so I am at a loss as to why the warning is persisting...

I am at a loss as to what the issue is here... any help would be much appreciated!
Many thanks!!

p.s.
Here details of the R and RStudio installations, as obtained from RStudio interface

I tried reinstalling once more, and this time I stopped rstudio-server before removing it (only difference compared with previous reinstall) and now the plots are visualised, so the error is solved!... but now view() does not work any more, so I can't view tables in Rstudio... the command runs but no output is generated...
