Thanks for the swift reply and interest in this matter.
Can you let me know the exact name of those two programs, including the
full path (e.g. C:\\Program Files\R\R-3.5\R.exe or whatever)? And the
Under 64-bit Windows, which is a bi-arch system, the executables can be
found in the bin\i386 and bin\x64 directories under the version-specific
R installation directory. The correct paths are recorded in the
ess-rterm-version-paths variable:
ess-rterm-version-paths is a variable defined in ‘ess-custom.el’.
Its value is
("C:/Program Files/R/R-3.6/bin/i386/Rterm.exe" "C:/Program
Files/R/R-3.5/bin/i386/Rterm.exe" "C:/Program

Issuing 'M-x R-[TAB]' results in
Click on a completion to select it.
In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.
Possible completions are:
R-3.3-32bit R-3.3-64bit R-3.4-32bit
R-3.4-64bit R-3.5-32bit R-3.5-64bit
R-3.6-32bit R-3.6-64bit R-fix-T-F
R-initialize-on-start R-mode R-newest
R-transcript-mode
where the first couple of entries should correspond to the executables
above.
I've set inferior-ess-r-program-name to "C:/Program
Files/R/R-3.6/bin/x64/Rterm.exe" so that 'M-x R' starts the 64-bit devel
version of R.

Hi,
I'd like to report the following, which I suspect is a bug:
On my Windows 10 system using Emacs 25.3.1 I've got several R versions.
For example, I've got R-3.5.0 and R-devel installed under C:\Program
Files\R\R-3.5 and C:\Program Files\R\R-3.6, respectively.
Up until quite recently, I could start a specific version, e.g., the
64-bit version of R-3.5.0 by issuing 'M-x R-3.5-64bit'. This is now
broken and results in "Searching for program: No such file or
directory,
R-3.5-64bit".
I've got a couple of "older" ESS versions lying around and found
that it
still works is ess-20180514.721, but is broken in ess-20180522.213
(and still broken in ess-20180701.100). I checked the commit history
and suspect that the 'Simplify how R-X.Y.Z style functions are created'
change that got merged in on May 21 may have something to do with this
problem.
Kind regards,
Henric Winell
