My employer has not yet approved R/RStudio but has allowed me to run R/RStudio from profile. I need to add RTools but not sure I can run RTools from the same location. So I unzipped Rtools and added the folder to my profile location containing R and RStudio and then modified my Rprofile adding a third path to the RTools folder as follows: # my custom stuff myPaths <- c(.libPaths(), "\\\\gold/home/ndw003/reichmjs/MyDocs/R/rtools40 <file://gold/home/ndw003/reichmjs/MyDocs/R/rtools40> ") .libPaths(myPaths) Not sure if this is the best method but seems to work; > .libPaths() [1] "\\\\gold/home/ndw003/reichmjs/MyDocs/R/win-library/4.0 <file://gold/home/ndw003/reichmjs/MyDocs/R/win-library/4.0> " [2] "\\\\gold/home/ndw003/reichmjs/MyDocs/R/R-40.3/library <file://gold/home/ndw003/reichmjs/MyDocs/R/R-40.3/library> " [3] "\\\\gold/home/ndw003/reichmjs/MyDocs/R/rtools40 <file://gold/home/ndw003/reichmjs/MyDocs/R/rtools40> " except when I run > has_rtools() WARNING: Rtools is required to build R packages, but is not currently installed. Please download and install Rtools 4.0 from https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/. I am assuming R isn't seeing Rtools So can I run Rtools from the same profile location as R and RStudio? IF so what do I need to do?
