That's what I was about to answer but tried first and it did not work.
Now I tried more and noticed an unexpected behavior:
getwd()
[1] "C:/Users/.../Documents"
file.choose() ## opens in "C:/Users/.../Documents" as expected
setwd("D:/")
getwd()
[1] "D:/"
file.choose() ## unexpectedly, opens in "C:/Users/.../Documents"
setwd("D:/Data")
getwd()
[1] "D:/Data"
file.choose() ## opens in "D:/Data" as expected
Is that normal behavior?
