pkoetzing  I don't appear to have this option. I'm running Windows 10 Pro, and I just installed PBI Desktop as an App, so it doesn't seem to show up in any of my folders as a file. Is there a way to get around this regardless?

Windows 10 Apps are stored in C:\Program Files\WindowsApps, so you can find the executable in something like

 

C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.MicrosoftPowerBIDesktop_2.75.5653.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\bin\PBIDesktop.exe

However, the WindowsApps folder is both hidden and protected, but with admin rights you can take over ownership like described e.g. in this article: https://www.maketecheasier.com/access-windowsapps-folder-windows-10/.
