Installing and configuring R for WPS Analytics on Windows

To run R programs in WPS Analytics you require an R interpreter. The R interpreter is not distributed with WPS Analytics and must be installed and configured before use.

To install the R Interpreter:

1. Download the R installation from the R project website.
   WPS Analytics supports R version 3.5 or later.
2. On the same device as WPS Analytics is installed, run the R installer.
   Make sure you select the correct interpreter version to match your 32-bit or 64-bit WPS Analytics installation.
3. Once the Interpreter is installed, set the R_HOME environment variable:
   • In the Windows Control Panel/System and Security, select System and click Advanced System Settings.
   • In the Advanced tab, click Environment Variables.
   • In System variables, click New.
     In Variable Name, enter R_HOME.
   • In Variable value, enter the path to the folder containing the R installation, for example C:\Program Files\R\R-3.5.1
   • Click OK to save the changes and close the dialog boxes by clicking OK each time.
