    Hi kylesmith877,

     

    According to this documentation, administrators can use the following registry key to disable the sign-in form. This can also be pushed out using global policies to the entire organization.

    Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop

    Regards

Thank you for the response, it is very much appreciated.  I had not yet stumbled on this documentation.  I will give this a try to see if it does in fact resolve what wee are seeing.
