Disable "R-Installation" PopUp

Hello everybody,

 

Everytime i start PowerBI I am greeted by this PopUp Message saying that no R-Installation was detected. I have read in another post, that to disable this PopUp i need to delete all the R-Visuals.  That's where I struggle. there is one R-Visual installed as you can see in the attached screenshot.

But when i open the menu to delete custom visuals, it doesn't appear in the list. also right-clicking on it does nothing. so it must be some sort of pre-installed visual? Any Ideas how to delete it? Or other ways to disable that annoying popup message? 

 

Thanks! 

  • Hi Anonymous ,

     

    The R-Visual is a build-in visual, it will pop-up no detected warning when there are at least one R-Visual used in your report and there are no R Engine installed in your computer. You can learn more about R-Visual here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-r-visuals

     

    "Delete all R-Visuals" means delete all the R-Visual used in your report, not in the visual panel, You can try to open a empty file and see if the message still pop up.

      thank you, that was really helpful! i deleted all the visuals, that weren't used in any panel one-by-one to pinpoint which one was the culprit :-) now the pop-up message is gone. 

       

      thanks again

      HI

       

      I deleted every visual from my report, and am left wtih a blank front page. I removed R from the visuals pane too.

       

      I still have this pop-up.

       

      Is there any other way to remove?

        R can be used in Query Editor as well.
        So I expect that your R is not in visual, but in data level.
