This is likely a "feature" of Windows Explorer....certain types of files are hidden by default (like those that start with "."). You can adjust this behavior in the folder options (if the idea of protected/hidden files and folder options all sounds new to you, now is a great opportunity to spend some time exploring your operating system, learning how it works and how to use it at a more serious level than the basic user it assumes....Google is your friend here, there are literally thousands of articles, walkthroughs, and tutorials on different aspects of Windows). >> rm (list = ls(all=TRUE)) This does NOT delete the workspace, it just clears your worksapce of any objects. >> q() > save working image Now you will have saved your current worksapce (which if you just used rm() as above, will be empty, but still there). > > On next start of R > [Previously saved workspace restored] > still popup Now you probably just restored an empty workspace.
