Not clear why there is a symbolic link. Maybe try using the fullpath
name to invoke R and see if that works. It seems to me that
'sometimes', on OSX, some symbolic links behave oddly. This may be
related to the Privacy/Security settings but I don't have any clear
understanding of what's
This is what I get after the current failure, where neither R.app nor the call

yet?
(You are getting intermittent errors
Fernando,
that looks like something is deleting files on your disk - that sounds pretty
bad. I would probably recommend re-installing a fresh macOS as you may have
some malware (or over-eager anti-virus or corporate software?) on your machine.
Given that R works after installation it really
The symbolic link is the standard way R is installed on a Mac. It's

Unix-like tools see it as a standard program, which is what you want
from the terminal.
The warnings and errors Fernando was seeing, like

Yes, this is consistent with the fact that R starts for you. Some other files
seem to have gone missing though, notably the datasets and compiler package, so
that R does not get very far before givinng up the ghost.
The pattern of recently created files disappearing is worrying, but not likely
