[ESS] M-x R pointing to most recent installed version of R?

[Richard M. Heiberger]

most likely all that is needed is to close emacs and reopen emacs.
that makes ESS search
the computer for all instances of R.

As of a few weeks ago, 3.3.2 was scheduled for release tomorrow Oct
31.  You might want
to wait so as to go through this nuisance only once.
