R Tools client: couldn't create connection to server. Launching server using command dotnet failed. Error: spawn dotnet ENOENT

Question

When trying to use the plot function in an R notebook on visual studio, nothing is shown and I obtain the following error:

[Error - 6:53:47 PM] R Tools client: couldn't create connection to server.
Launching server using command dotnet failed. Error: spawn dotnet ENOENT

These are the loaded libraries: library(ggplot2) library(TOSTER) library(effectsize) library(lme4) library(e1071) library(lmerTest) library(moments) library(influence.ME) library(Rmisc) library(emmeans) library(tidyr) library(reshape2) library(plotly) library(data.table) library(dplyr) library(psych) # corr.test

Do you know where the problem could come from?

Thank you very much in advance,

Elena

I think that the problem is caused by the instalation of Rtools, that overwrites the configuration of R.

To fix this go to your settings,

Ctrl-Shift-P >>> Preferences: Open keyboard shortcuts, and remove this configration r.executeInTerminal that's the one of Rtools.

Then it should work.

Thanks. I just removed R Tools from the vscode Extensions menu where I also installed it from – Johan Jun 22 '23 at 12:33
