Recommended Settings for RStudio

Compilation of recommended settings for the RStudio IDE:

Go to "Tools > Global Options":

• "General | Basic | workspace"
  • untick "Restore .RData into workspace at startup"
  • "Save workspace .RData on exit:" Never

This will ensure that restarting R (Ctrl+Shift+F10) will give you a pristine R session and not reload some of your previous artifacts. Not doing so could lead to hard to debug errors when moving to the HPC.

If your windows setup is not in English: Go to "Tools > Global Options":

• "Advanced | Experimental Features"
  • "User Interface Language": English
