My system:
Windows 7 64-bit
R version 3.2.3
Rstudio version 1.06

Details:
A similar question was asked 2 years ago here. Since the notebook functionalities have been updated since then, and because the suggested solution to clear workspace did not work, I hope it's OK to ask a somewhat similar question now.

I'm simply trying to preview the default file that pops up when you select New / R Notebook in the RStudio File menu, using the Preview Notebook button in Rstudio. I'm able to run the code before saving the file, and I'm also able to see some output when I run the script, but when I try to save the file as an Rmd.file, I can't get rid of that pesky warning. enter image description here I've named the file nb01.Rmd Googling the issue didn't help much either, so I hope some of you know how to fix this.

    Can you try updating the rmarkdown package? Try getting the latest version from GitHub: devtools::install_github('rstudio/rmarkdown') Commented Sep 5, 2016 at 18:54

    I also followed @KevinUshey's advice but had to restart RStudio before the change took effect. Commented Jul 21, 2021 at 13:33

I had a similar issue with a ggplot2 output not allowing the preview to be created and the notebook to be saved. I don't really have a solution to this but I updated all my packages in R studio, and voila problem solved. I have no idea why that worked.

But if you are having a similar issue, update the packages.
