I want to stop my currently running code in Rstudio WITHOUT CLOSING RStudio as I have connected SQL database thru channel & it will take a hell lot of time if i abort the process & start from scratch. Please help me. "Esc, Ctrl+c" shortcuts are not working. I 'm using Windows 7 ,64bit OS.

2You've tried clicking the red "stop" button? – neilfws May 25 '17 at 04:52

2I'm afraid you may have to admit defeat and try the solution suggested by @ShakeerMirza. I've taken to always keeping Task Manager open on Windows machines at work, solely to try and kill runaway RStudio processes :) – neilfws May 25 '17 at 05:01

1Aa suggested by someone before, open the task manager and kill the r process ( not the r studio process). This only restarts your r shell but leaves r studio open. – Buggy May 25 '17 at 05:30

3@user3293236 I think the problem is not closing the Rstudio, but losing the workspace. If losing a workspace is an issue, OP should take preventive measures and save it before running any commands which might "hang" the session. – Roman Luštrik May 25 '17 at 05:52

Yeah you're right. I should have added that part. – Buggy May 25 '17 at 06:43
