Extension behaving oddly when file is part of VSCode workspace

Describe the bug When I open my R files as part of a workspace file that I have, I can load a previous image, but nothing is populated under global Environment. When I run View(df) the R data frame Viewer pops up and not the one in VS Code. If I repeat the same steps but outside of a Workspace then the extension behaves as normal.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a VS Workspace or use an existing one.
2. Add an R file.
3. Click on the R Extension and under Select the "Load Workspace". Select an existing *.rdata that contains data.
4. Once done loading check under Global Environment. It is empty.
5. Run View(df) to open any data frame. Default R viewer (from the normal R environment) should open.
6. Close the Work space and open the same R file as in Step 2.
7. Click on the R Extension and under Select "Load Workspace". Select an existing *.rdata that contains data.
8. Once done loading check under Global Environment, it should be populated with the data.
9. Run View(df) to open any data frame, it will now open in VS Code as per normal

Can you fix this issue by yourself? (We appreciate the help)

No

// R.exe path for windows "r.rterm.windows": "",

// R command line options (i.e: --vanilla) "r.rterm.option": [],

// An optional encoding to pass to R when executing the file, i.e. 'source(FILE, encoding=ENCODING)' "r.source.encoding": "UTF-8",

// Keeping focus when running "r.source.focus": "editor",

// Use active terminal for all commands, rather than creating a new R terminal "r.alwaysUseActiveTerminal": false,

// Use bracketed paste mode "r.bracketedPaste": false,

// Enable R session watcher "r.sessionWatcher": true,

// Delay in milliseconds before sending each line to rterm (only applies if r.bracketedPaste is false) "r.rtermSendDelay": 8,

**Expected behavior**
The expectation is that when running a file in a VS workspace or outside a VS Workspace it should behave the same. Running View(df) should open the data frame in VS Code. When loading an *.Rdata, the Global Environment should be populated with the needed information.

Before the current update this was the behavior.

**Screenshots**

**Environment (please complete the following information):**

- OS: Windows 10
- VSCode Version: 1.89.1
- R Version: 4.4.0
- vscode-R version: 2.8.3

**Additional context**
I recently update to R 4.4.0 (earlier this week I think) and the extension was still working as normal.
