Someone here might be able to help if you describe what you did.  I just 
tried "Open with..." and selected Rgui.exe from the bin/x64 directory, 
and that failed.   A couple of other things I tried worked:

1.  Edit the registry key

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RWorkspace\shell\open\command

2.  Rename the bin/x64/Rgui.exe file to something else, and ask to open 
with that.
