Dear all -

Is there anyone know how to let VB or C# know where I install R automatically(i.e. auto detect R directory)?

On Windows if you run the installer it will record its location in the registry, under *\Software\R-core\R\, where * is HKLM or HKCU, depending on what permissions the user had who installed it. But some users don't run the installer (maybe because someone else installed it on a network, or they built it themselves) so that isn't completely reliable.
