You say below that you installed R packages when R was run as administrator and that you took all defaults. In that case, the installed packages will be in C:\Program Files\R\R-3.2.2\library . Just delete the library directory, which will still be there after R 3.2.2 is uninstalled. I do recommend, by the way, that, for using the Rcmdr, you install R with the SDI rather than the default MDI, but that doesn't explain your difficulties. > > I have used defaults throughout the process, except for running the whole > things > as Administrator rather than a User.

Here's my hypothesis: When you "closed" R, you saved the R workspace. My guess is that this is the source of your problem. If so, the saved workspace is in the file .RData in your home directory; delete it and try again. If this works, in future, exit from the Rcmdr and R via the Rcmdr menus (or if closing R directly, don't save the workspace).
