Running R / RStudio on Windows 10

问题:

I've been using R / RStudio for several months on Windows 7 & 8. Now I've received the upgrade invitation from Microsoft but at the same time, I've heard that there were serious compatibility issues between ancient versions of Windows and Windows 10. I would need to know if it's possible to run R / RStudio on Windows 10 without major issues.

回答1:

I have personally tried to run R and Rstudio with Windows with no problems (at the moment). Needless to say, I am on a split setup where my work machine is a windows 10 OS and my home is a Windows 7 OS. However, I find myself using my Windows 7 OS due to familiarity (with the GUI) and potential compatibility issues (that I might not be aware of at the moment). I guess this is a personal gimmick of mine, but as with all 'new' OS, expect to be disappointed.

I'm currently running R/Rstudio on Windows 10 at home. Haven't hit any snags yet. I wouldn't rush to deploy in an Enterprise environment, but as far as I can tell it seems stable enough where R operation is concerned.

Plus, you get Cortana (which, judging by the name, sounds a bit frumpier than Siri, but it is Windows after all)

I installed Win 10 on my laptop (i7, 16g Ram) last week and so far it is working OK with R studio. My desk computer is nearly the same specs as my laptop, but I am keeping it with Win 8.1 for now.

I've been running R and RStudio on Windows 10 (both Home and Pro editions) with no fuss at all yet.

回答5:

I had also been working with both R and Rstudio in windows 7 and 8. However, Rstudio stopped working after upgrading to windows 10. R is still working appropriately. So, you could expect problems or no problems after upgrading to windows 10. Try holding down the control key while starting R studio.
