    it would be great if you could deploy Rtools since R and RStudio are already available. There are also other customers asking for this in Request PATCHMYPC-I-3271

    Hi Raunak,


    Thanks for the speedy change on the ticket status.

    The ones we use are:

    https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/Rtools/

    Likely need the 3 versions as folks have different R versions which align to the version of tools.

    Hey TC and Philips !

    Yes, possibly there is a confusion around this.

    Could you please help me with the download url for Rtool. Meanwhile, I'll change the status of this.

    Is this the one : https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/rtools40.html ? Or https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/Rtools/

    Agreed, this has not been shipped, possibly confusion around which is which?

    RTools - Add-on Tools (the one originally asked for in this request(

    R for Windows - the Programming Language pack (e.g. think Python).

    RStudio - the IDE (e.g. think VS Code etc.)

    All are from 3 different vendors but very often used together.

    Can we please RE_SUBMIT this one as it is NOT shipped.

    I see this is marked shipped now, but I'm not able to see it in the catalog. Am I missing something?

    Sorry, please disregard my previous comment. I found R for Windows in the catalog. I couldn't find it before.

    Is this the same as R for Windows that we install from here?

    https://cran.r-project.org/ - then click 'Download R for Windows', then click 'Base', then 'Download R 4.0.3 for Windows'

    I just wanted to let you all know we haven't forgotten about this request. We are working through some others at the moment that more unique customers are following. If any others come across this idea, please vote it up if it's one you would like to see added.
