R-Studio will start with full access to your system disk. You need to follow this procedure only once, next time R-Studio will start without these messages.

 

If you don’t want to unblock R-Studio , click the Exit button on the R-Studio's message. R-Studio will start and work properly, but without access to the system disk and when you  start R-Studio next time, its message will appear again. You will be able to unblock the program if needed.
