I used Rtools for installing a package under Windows XP. I used commands like R CMD INSTALL (build, check) in the CMD window. It worked well until I found that my revised package can be updated with R CMD INSTALL. After I restarted my computer, R cannot be started any more. I double click the R icon, it gives me no response. I tried to start R in the CMD window, it gives me an error message like "R for Windows front-end has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." The error signature is like "AppName: r.exe AppVer: 2.100.50208.0 ModName: msvcrt.dll ModVer: 7.0.2600.2180 Offset: 000360cb"
Sounds like your OS or R is broken now. Perhaps an upate of your OS or a corrupted file / filesystem on your hard disc? This is probably not an R problem.
