You seem to have a .Last function defined that contains a call to finalizeSession. Remove it and the error should go away: .Last # to print it and see if anything important is there rm(.Last) # to remove it if not Normally you don't need .Last, but you can define it if you want R to do something on shutdown. It looks like R.utils did that for you at some point, and you saved the workspace afterwards. Duncan Murdoch > > Is there any way I can switch off /reverse this behaviour?
