How to "launch" a data file (eg jpeg) from R/Rstudio

General
1

I'm looking for a general-purpose launcher for Windows where you specify a file and it opens that file in Windows with the default associated program.
is there such a library in R?

Failing that any suggestions for just coping with the specific case of JPeg images?

Please try this (AI generated answer)

path <- "C:/Users/folder/pictureFolder/nameOfPicture.jpg"
shell.exec(path)

No package required !

That works perfectly - thank you
