The R-on-Windows FAQ has recommends to NOT install in a path with spaces.
The R Installer on Windows defaults to a path with spaces. I cannot reconcile it either. Such is life, sometimes. But when I had to work on that platform in the past I put my open source stuff into c:/opt/ -- so maybe try reinstalling? Rtools also had (has ?) a gotcha requiring c:/ placement.
