How to remove "No R Installation Detected" splash window

I had "explored" the possibility of using R with Power BI; but, for reasons I won't get into, I decided against it...at least for now.

 

Anyhow, now I get this splash window every time I start Power BI.

How can I stop this window from displaying?

 

I assume the answer lies within Options and Settings...I thought it might be under Options/R scripting...but I don't see anything helpful there.

Have you removed any visual, custom or otherwise that use R from your dashboard/report? It shouldn't give that message, if you removed all R visuals from it.

I do have the same problem here. Deleted all the visuals and even the querys, leaving a completely blank report with one empty page. Opening this report still shows me the message.

 

I accidentally clicked on the R-Script-Visual and had an empty visual (didn't see it) on one of my report pages and saved this version. Opening the report again, showed me the message. I found the R-Visual and deleted it but as I meantioned before, the message won't disappear even after deleted everything in the report. Seems like a bug...

What you can try is remove the imported visuals from the pane not just the visual you accidentally clicked. That worked for me. Another bug however is if you have a long list, you may not see the buttons but the yellow one is remove.

Thank you so much! That worked for me too!

Thanks @Chihiro! That was the problem. I still had the correlation plot visual loading.
