I am just starting to explore the rmarkdown package. I don't use Rstudio. I use the default R environment. What I did was as follows.
I created a new R document.
Started typing few lines in rmarkdown format.
Saved the file with Rmd extension.
I saved the file in the working directory.
I installed the pandoc using the pkg file.
I installed 'rmarkdown' package. Loaded the package.
Used the following command to render the Rmd file.
rmarkdown::render("Untitled.Rmd")
I get the following error.
Error in tools::file_path_as_absolute(input) : file 'Untitled.Rmd' does not exist
I tried all the possible ways such as giving the exact path instead of filename etc. But nothing worked out. I googled the error message and found that none had similar error. Can someone help me with this. What I am missing. What the error message mean?

No Knit HTML button This means that RStudio doesn't understand your document is supposed to be an RMarkdown document, often because your file extension is . txt . To fix this, go to the Files tab (lower right corner, same pane as Plots and Help) and select the checkbox next to your document's name.
The simplest way of handling conditions in R is to simply ignore them: Ignore errors with try() . Ignore warnings with suppressWarnings() .
Text: Also on this page, one can see text sections, for example, one section starts with “## R Markdown” this section will render as text when the PDF of this file is produced and all of the formattings that the user will learn generally applies to this section.
Most of the time the error file not found is either a type error or a real missing file (as in your case, the real one is named in another way).
In order to discard those possibilities:
Make sure the file exists, inside R you could type:
file.exists("/fullpath/to/file")
If that return TRUE and the error persists, then you suspect another thing is going on.
