How to update PowerBI desktop version?

Hi I created a new file using the feb-2024 version then saved it.

Then when i re-opened the same file i got these 2 error messages.

and when i check the version in the file it said dec-2023.. ? somehow my default PowerBI desktop version opens a older version, anyone know how to fix this?

For automatic updates, download Power BI directly from the Microsoft Store. The Microsoft Store version automatically updates to the latest version, saving you the hassle of manually reinstalling every time there's an update. (assuming that you can download from ms store).

 

This version offers the benefit of automatic updates, which is not available when downloading from the web. With the web version, you would need to uninstall and reinstall the software whenever a new update becomes available.
