[Rd] R 4.0.2 64-bit Windows hangs

Fri Aug 21 20:57:40 CEST 2020

I'm only using Visual Studio to debug.

I'm using R version 4.0.2 from: https://cran.r-project.org/, and have tested the patched version. Even the x64 version of the previous version of R (3.6) does not run.

I have previously had Microsoft R Open installed on the machine, but it's been uninstalled.

Thanks.
