In Windows Vista, you have to "run as administrator".

Please don't: the point of not running as administrator is to protect you and your OS from rogue processes. *If* you use a starting directory you own, there is no problem on Vista (for me, or many other Vista users).


I ran into the same thing myself.

Hope this helps!
Sincerely,
Erin

Hi!

I use R with Windows for a long time. In the last week I change to Windows
Vista. Now I can“t save the workspace image when I exit R. The system
presents the following message "Unable to open .Rhistory". Does anyone can
help me?

Did you change the shortcut from which you run R to start in a user
directory, as advised in the rw-FAQ?

Start R, run 'getwd()' and check it is a directory which you own.
If not, alter the shortcut until it is.



I thank you in advance,

Ana
