I'm working in Power BI Desktop on the company's notebook, and don't have authorization to install programs in the
C:\Program Files. So I installed Rstudio in another directory. My Power BI isn't recognizing the Rstudio IDE even when i show him the .exe path.
Does anyone know how I can solve it without changing the .exe directory?
Have you set the path to the IDE in power bi settings?
See screen shot of settings screen in...

Yes.
Even with the path setted there, I still keep getting the "unespected error"
Maybe I dind't explain it correctly, R is working fine haha
The problem is when a I try to open the Rstudio IDE directly from the R script editor in Power BI, so I can work on the script with the selected columns.
Haha. I completely misunderstood.
Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with this error so maybe someone else can jump in.
If you want to use R in Power BI, you need to point it at the R home directory (where R is installed), not RStudio.
Since RStudio is a program for developing R and not the installation of the language itself, it would be a bit like linking to Notepad.exe if that's where you chose to edit your R instead.
