Just to add an additional function should you need it. You can include a variable in the named location, for example a date identifier

date <- yyyymmdd
save(city, file=paste0("c:\\myuser\\somelocation\\",date,"_RData.Data")

This was you can always keep a check of when it was run

There are three ways to save objects from your R session   Saving all objects in your R session   The save image   function will save all objects currently in your R session   save image file  1 RData      These objects can then be loaded back into a new R session using the load   function   load file  1 RData     Saving some objects in your R session   If you want to save some  but not all objects  you can use the save   function   save city  country  file  1 RData     Again  these can be reloaded into another R session using the load   function   load file  1 RData      Saving a single object  If you want to save a single object you can use the saveRDS   function   saveRDS city  file  city rds   saveRDS country  file  country rds      You can load these into your R session using the readRDS   function  but you will need to assign the result into a the desired variable   city  lt - readRDS  city rds   country  lt - readRDS  country rds     But this also means you can give these objects new variable names if needed  i e  if those variables already exist in your new R session but contain different objects    city list  lt - readRDS  city rds   country vector  lt - readRDS  country rds

Alternatively  when you want to save individual R objects  I recommend using saveRDS    You can save R objects using saveRDS  then load them into R with a new variable name using readRDS   Example     Save the city object saveRDS city   city rds             Load the city object as city city  lt - readRDS  city rds      Or with a different name city2  lt - readRDS  city rds     But when you want to save many all your objects in your workspace  use Manetheran s answer
