New Mac User - Opening r studio using Rosetta

Hi, sorry if this is a poorly written question, but I am a new Mac user and am relatively new to R.

I just got a new computer with the M3 chip. I downloaded the most recent version of R, then R studio. When I opened R studio, I was told to download Rosetta, and use Rosetta to open R Studio. After doing both, I now cannot use R studio.

Thank you for any help!

Did you install the x86_64 version of R? If yes, for that you indeed need Rosetta. Try installing the arm64 build of R.
