[DePaolis, Fernando]

Thank you, Sarah. Yes, I considered this issue and continue my investigation... eagerly awaiting an OS update/upgrade that may address it.
Thank you.

Hi,

I see you've gotten all kinds of R-specific suggestions and feedback,
but I wonder if this might be a more fundamental problem related to
the "This file cannot be found" bug that is persisting in Mac OS

I haven't encountered this problem with applications, but certainly it
has been a pesky problem with files.

Usually trying again resolves it for files.

This is clearly not the, as I worked on it the night before or even just a few hours earlier. What is clear is that R is not available on my system, although all the files are still there (in /Library/Frameworks/R.framework). It could be that a critical file becomes corrupted, or the system can’t find it. I have not been able to determine whether that is the case, or which file could be affected. I might have re-installed R dozens of times in the last month. This is something that never happened in the previous more than 15 years of using R.
