When I try to load package "xlsx" in RStudio it crashes with "R session aborted, R encountered a fatal error".
I am running:
Windows 10 21H2
RStudio 2022.02.2 Build 485
R 4.2.0
xlsx package 0.6.5
I am starting RStudio with a clean environment, and when I try library(xlsx)
in R it works fine. library(rJava)
also works in RStudio.
Any ideas where I should start looking for the error?

I get this too. I couldn't figure out what it was cause I load all packages with pacman. I had to take packages out of the statement to figure out what it was. and it only does it with R 4.2 in RStudio. It won't do it in PowerShell 7.2
I've found a description of the underlying problem here:

bug
When calling rJava::.jinit() in the RStudio console then RStudio shows the dialo… g "R Session Aborted" (R encountered a fatal error).
This happens with R 4.2.0, but not with previous R versions.
In plain R or when sourcing the command as local job in RStudio there is no error.
### System details
RStudio Edition : Desktop
RStudio Version : 2022.02.1 Build 461
OS Version : Windows 10 Pro, 21H2, 64 bit
R Version : 4.2.0 (2022-04-22 ucrt, x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64)
Java Version : 11.0.12 (Temurin - Eclipse Foundation amd64)
### Steps to reproduce the problem
Start RStudio
execute in the console:
```
install.packages("rJava") # if rJava is not installed yet
rJava::.jinit()
```
Alternatives:
- create a file `checkJava.R` that contains `rJava::.jinit()`
- type `source("checkJava.R")`
### Describe the problem in detail
When executing the code or sourcing it, RStudio reports that the R session aborted.
### Describe the behavior you expected
R session should not crash.

In the bottom there is a link to a patched version of R 4.2.0, that does indeed solve the problem.
