I recently downloaded Microsoft Power BI Pro Desktop.  I have a ribbon on the side with notifications, favorites, apps, shared with me, workspaces, and sync.  I do not have a "file" button on any ribbon (no top ribbon).  How do i find this?

Sounds like you downloaded and installed the Power BI Mobile App, not Desktop.
