What is the meaning of the following error when I start RStudio, and how can I address it? I re-installed a new version of R (3.2.1) and did a reinstall of RStudio
"rsession.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point strerror_s could not be located in the dynamic link library msvcrt.dll."

The answer from RockScience points to an out-of-date URL (and older version of RStudio). This is the official RStudio page for older versions, where version 0.98.1103 is available. This message was written in Oct 2016.
On installation the reported error does not occur and everything appears to work fine. However, the following appears in the Console:
Warning message:
R graphics engine version 11 is not supported by this version of RStudio.
The Plots tab will be disabled until a newer version of RStudio is installed.
Not sure of the full meaning of this warning but all plot types that I tested so far seem to work great. They do appear in a separate window, however, and not integrated into the "Plots" tab of RStudio. After installing the "ggplot2" package, the warning still occurs.

you can install a old version of Rstudio that was still supporting XP: For instance https://download1.rstudio.org/RStudio-0.98.245.exe

I installed Rstudio with R(3.2.1) to my XP box and get this same error message when opening Rstudio. Clicking "OK" and moving past the error message yields what appears to be a perfectly good Rstudio. That is, I have used tutorials and it works as the tutorial indicates it should. Plotting is fine, calculating is fine, etc.
