How do i open a pbit files

[Zoom67]

Hi All.

I have just loaded a 60 days trial version of Power BI and I am trying to open two PBIT files.

Do I need to add in some sort of template app?

It's said to double click the actual template file and the template will open - No joy?

I have tried to add on an app for a template but no joy?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

HI Freginier

Yes this is resolved. The problem was the Power BI desktop had not loaded correctly so i could not open the files.

I can now. Thanks.

Hi @Zoom67 

Have you solved this question with freginier's help? If you have solved the question, you can accept the answer helpful as the solution or share you method and accept it as solution, thanks for your contribution to improve Power BI.

Besides, just as freginier said, you can open .pbit file with Power BI Desktop. When you double click on the file, have you installed Power BI Desktop locally?
