Sorry, there is nothing to reproduce here.

The pertinent error message is not the one you quote in your subject line but

Error in file.exists(name) : unsupported conversion in 'filenameToWchar'

At face value that means that iconv does not know about your locale.
That's possible, but it does know about 'English'. If you can start R at all, what does Sys.getlocale() give?

See what happens if you add LC_ALL=en to the target on the shortcut you use to start R. That should force use of American English (it does for me).

It's a long shot, but if that fails can you please try R-patched, binaries available from

http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rpatched.html

If the real error is something earlier, this might have solved it.

I presume you mean 2.7.0?

I installed R software version 2.7 onto my computer (Windows XP SP2 English).
The installation was smooth without problem.

However, R program crashed with the following error message:

 Error in file.exists(name) : unsupported conversion in 'filenameToWchar'
 Fatal error: unable to restore saved data in .RData

Can anyone provide a remedy to this? Many thanks in advance. Cheers.
