Power BI installer doesn't open/run
For those that are experiencing the same issue, download and install using this link;

Then download the latest version;

And the installer will run, seems it requires dependencies an older version would provide.
I have a corporate issued laptop, the Windows store is not an option for me.
Older versions of PowerBI desktop are available here:

The linked version, from July 2019, worked fine for me.
MS removed the 2019 verison of Power BI. This solution no longer works and the installer still doesnt work for me.
MS needs to fix the installer already.
