Hi Del235

Can you use Narrative visualization in Power BI Desktop before ? How did you update your Desktop to Dec version ? If you update Desktop through Microsoft Store , it is recommended that you remove this Desktop and download the latest installer from Download center and reinstall it.

Download Power BI Desktop from Official Microsoft Download Center
