@一棵黄葛树 Go to "Add or remove programs" and remove the external tool. Just search "Add or remove programs"i in Windows search bar.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Thanks for the concern, the program itself is uninstalled, but there is still an icon of this plugin showing on the toolbar, what can I do?
