Impossible to open training document with Power Bi Desktop

Hello,
How could I open the sample pbix ("Getting started with Power BI Desktop") with the version installed in my organization (Version: 2.59.5135.781 64-bit (juin 2018)) ?
A 5 months old version unable to open a training document ?
what a disappointment !
Would be interested in a solution that does not need a software update (we do not have the latest version here, it seems...).
Thank you very much 🙂

Does it really not open it? Many times you get a bunch of erros/warnings but it still opens.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Unfortunately it did not.
It worked after application update (which in my case is managed by company IT)
