RStudio is blank when opened

Question

I have just installed the latest versions of R (3.1.0) and Rstudio (v0.98.507) on a Windows 7 machine, 64 bit.

The R GUI works OK, but when I open the RStudio.exe only a blank window opens. I've tried re-installing R and RStudio.

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

By choosing the R version I wanted to use I was able to use Rstudio again.

To choose the R version you want to use with Rstudio do the following;

1. Click the CTRL key (don't let go)
2. Click on the Rstudio icon
3. Choose the version you want in the pop-up window.

Answer 2

For Ubuntu users where @neal's solution doesn't work.

$ rstudio --no-sandbox
