Using RStudio 2022.12.0+349, running Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, I am bound to the home directory and can't navigate anywhere else in the included Files browser. In RStudio GUI, I can't select root with / like it's possible on RStudio server at work. However, in any folder I can open with... any *.R script or *.Rproj. I tried to find some options to set permissions in the Global Options to no avail (the ~ is greyed out and unchangable).
Interestingly in VSCode I can access anything I want.
Does RStudio need special permissions, or what does it need to be able to access directories above home?
