Can you install R (version 3.2.2) programming executable on Windows 10 computer?

Yes you can.

You need to download the program from here. Double clicking will let you begin installing. The installation is quite fast on Windows 10. Accept all the defaults during installation unless you need to customize. You can see all the steps in my previous installation on a Windows 7 (x64) laptop here.
After installation you will find two shortcuts as shown:

One of them is a shortcut for the x64bit program and the other shortcut R i386 3.2.2 is a x32bit program. Probably you only need one of them. The x64 version shortcut gets added to the Start.
