You need to either escape the backslashes (with another backslash) or use forward slashes. Perhaps most simply: list.files(path = getwd(), all.files = FALSE) > >> list.files(path="C:\Users\satimis", all.files = TRUE) > Error: '\U' used without hex digits in character string starting "C:\U" > > -> Windows Explorer > delete .Rhistory manually don't forget the .Rdata file, history is separate. > > > Start R > .... > [Previously saved workspace restored] > > is still there > > > Please advise. TIA Sure the message is there but it should have restored an empty workspace so it should have absolutely no impact on your work. If the message really bugs you, add the --vanilla flag when you start R. If you are using a shortcut to R, you can add it there, if you start R from the command prompt you can use it directly just like "R --vanilla".
