My desktop version was updated several hours ago automatically from Microsoft Store. From "About" section of Power BI Desktop: Version: 2.78.5740.721 64-bit (February 2020).

Interesting that there is no official word about this release. Also I am facing lots of errors during loading my old DQ reports. The error messages say "Something went wrong" and pop up many times. Where can I find December 2019 version because I can't work like this.

    It has been my observation that release highlights tend to lag quite a few hours behind the actual update.

     

    Leonid_Kostin ,I have the December 2019 msi installer... let me know if/how you'd like me to share.

      If possible, could you please upload it somewhere for some time? I will download it  as soon as possible and reinstall on my local PC.

        This phenomena happens next to the release date. There was a version in Feb/15, which also pronpted to repair. This one never happen to work. Then they released the Feb/18. This one installed normally.

         

        It is like they just touched the file and it got a new date (Feb/15) but it was the same released in December/2019, that's why it asks to repair.
