This is an example using a hybrid file.bat + script.r

@;echo off && setlocal 
@;
@;pushd "C:\Program Files\R\R-4.0.5\bin\i386\." 2>nul && (
@;
@;    %__APPDIR__%findstr.exe /vb @; ^<"%~f0" >"%temp%\RScr.r"
@;    R.exe --vanilla <"%tmp%\RScr.r">nul 2>&1 ) || ( 
@;
@;   echo\Error: script.r not found^!! )
@;
@;2>nul del/q "%tmp%\RScr.r" & endlocal & goto :eof
@;
@;rem :: below you can insert your R codes without start lines with "@;"

require(tcltk)

msgBox <- tkmessageBox(title = "tc/ltk SO Q431647",
                       message = "Hello, world! by tcltk!", icon = "info", type = "ok")

msgBox <- tkmessageBox(title = "zOk Click..",
                       message = "z0k", type = "ok")

Try:
cd /d "C:\Program Files\R\R-3.6.1\bin\i386" && Rscript.exe ScriptCode.R

An excerpt from Run R script from command line - Stack Overflow[^]

If you want the output to print to the terminal it is best to use Rscript

BAT

Rscript a.R

Note that when using R CMD BATCH a.R that instead of redirecting output to standard out and displaying on the terminal a new file called a.Rout will be created.

BAT

R CMD BATCH a.R
# Check the output
cat a.Rout
