I would like to automatically run the following command every time RStudio starts with Windows 10: options(browser = "C:/Program Files/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe")

How should I do it? Is it possible to do it? I tried to put this command in a .Rprofile file. However it did not work. Thanks for your help.

I believe it is a problem of RStudio. Somehow RStudio avoid using my .Rprofile file. If I use RGUI.exe, everything is fine.

Thanks Jose. So, basically, I cannot do that with RStudio. – Tom Dec 02 '21 at 22:12
