RStudio seems to not pay due regard to the distinction between APPDATA and LOCALAPPDATA.

Hi Martin,

the command

%localappdata%\RStudio-Desktop

gives on my machine

"The command is written wrong or could not be found.".

I found "RStudio-Desktop" under

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\RStudio-Desktop

There references on created notebooks and presentations are stored in the
folder "RStudio-Desktop". RStudio config is not documented yet.

Kind regards

Georg

Thanks a lot, Jeff!

And for the archives:  On reasonable OS's,  the hidden
directory/folder containing all the info is
                                   ~/.rstudio-desktop/
and if "things are broken" the recommendation is to rename that
    mv ~/.rstudio-desktop  ~/backup-rstudio-desktop
and (zip and) send along with your e-mail to the experts for diagnosis.
