External visuals aren't appear immidiately or delay on Desktop when download or uploaded from ...

On a PC Windows10 with latest updates of windows and PowerBi as weel , when I download - install a visual therefore I wait 20' minutes to see the visuals under the systemic ones. I ran the internet speed test and is almost 49MB/s and everything else seens ok. 

I mean after downloading a visual I am not sure wheter is installed or not and I need to wait up to 1/2 hour to see and to add to my desktop

 

Thank you

Hi @Gfloras ,

 If you have imported a custom visual in Power BI Desktop but are not using it, you should always delete it (as shown here). There is another, smaller overhead associated with even having a custom visual imported into a report – although, again, this may well change in the future.

 

Please refer this blog: Performance Overhead Of Using Power BI Custom Visuals

HI @Gfloras 

If it is a time issue, the issue list can be anything. usually this is not the case.
However, I would close all other applications running on the system and free up processor and memory and give it a try again. Also, check your task manager to see if there is any process using lot of system resources.
