Install CRAN Package not working without any open workspace folder

[renkun-ken]

If no workspace folder is open, using "Install CRAN Package" will cause the following error after confirming the packages to install:

Variable ${workspaceFolder} can not be resolved. Please open a folder.

This issue is stale because it has been open for 365 days with no activity.

I encountered this same issue. The error message is "Variable workspaceFolder can not be resolved. Please open a folder." Even when I did open a folder, this message persists.
