Understanding RDA Issues


Common RDA Opening Problems

R Isn't There

When you double-click your RDA file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". Customarily, this means that R is not installed on %%os%%. You won't be able to double-click to open your RDA because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.


Tip: Another RDA-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Wrong Version of R is Installed

Your R Data File file is incompatible with R because you might have the wrong version installed. Installing the latest version of R from The R Foundation is recommended. This problem is predominately due to having a R Data File file version that was created by a newer version of R than what you have installed on your PC.


Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of RDA file you have by right clicking on the file, then clicking on "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac OSX).


Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening RDA files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.


Associated Difficulties Loading RDA Files

Errors opening R Data File files can still occur even with the latest R software installed on your computer. If you're still experiencing problems opening RDA files, there could be other computer problems. Issues that aren't software-related:

  • Invalid RDA file references in the Windows Registry (the "phonebook" of the Windows Operating System)
  • Deletion of the RDA file description from the Registry by mistake
  • Invalid installation of a RDA-associated program (eg. R)
  • The RDA itself is corrupted
  • Malware-tainted RDA file can't be opened
  • RDA-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
  • Insufficient system resources to successfully open R Data File files
