Sure, there is some ambiguity on where MS would prefer these kinds of files. But what is clear is that the current location USER/Documents is causing a serious issue. And while we can all understand frustration with Microsoft, Windows users represent a major proportion of the R install base. So let's see what we can do to help out those users. Changing the default location to either USER/R or USER/AppData/Local/R would help a lot of users, both beginners and those with moderate experience who switch to a new cloud backup. Microsoft is unlikely to put out new guidance any time soon. And the current guidance doesn't seem opposed to putting R libraries in either suggested location. So how about we just pick one (I suggest USER/R for simplicity) and discuss how to go about making the change? -Steve ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
