Visual Studio Code – Changing default version of R used when opening an R terminal VSCode

I’m opening an R terminal in VSCode, but relying on renv and a specific version of R I have on my PC. The current terminal loads the newest version. Easy way to change?

    One option would be to use rig to manage the different R versions on your system. When you need a specific version, use rig default <R version> in the command line to set the one you need to use with a specific project and change back (e.g. using rig default release) once you’re done.

    You can set the specific R executable launched in the terminal with the setting r.rterm.windows (or r.rterm.mac or r.rterm.linux as appropriate).
