[Bioc-devel] Fwd: can't install CRAN Packages after installed devel version of R and Bioc 3.4

You need to figure out where R is installed, probably in

c:\program files\R-3.4\bin

If you go to that directory (you can do it with this command in a command window):

cd c:\progra~1\R-3.4\bin

Then start R like this:

.\R.exe --vanilla
