If you want to install a newer version of R, it is outside of our support, but we do recommend using the Posit pre-compiled R binaries when possible and installing multiple versions of R rather than updating one version to the next. Here are instructions on installing R with our precompiled binaries - https://docs.posit.co/resources/install-r/
