RStudio hangs on startup after Ubuntu 22.04 update

I updated to Ubuntu 22.04 and now RStudio hangs when I try and start it.

I just get a blank screen and can't exit or quit except by killing the process.

How can I get RStudio functioning correctly again?

I had the same problem and this is the only solution that worked for me

Open it from the terminal with the command: usr/lib/rstudio/bin/rstudio --no-sandbox. A fix is supposed to come out later this summer.

You can edit rstudio.desktop to make clicking the Rstudio icon work as well.

sudo nano /usr/share/applications/rstudio.desktop

Add --no-sandbox in the Exec-line

This relates to an existing issue.

The current solution is to reinstall RStudio - currently from the daily builds: https://dailies.rstudio.com/
