Power Bi Desktop is So Slow

Whenever I open PowerBi desktop, without even importing any dataset into it, it starts lagging. I have tried reinstalling but same problem. I can't drag charts and graphs and they move immediately, any button or icon I click on takes a couple of seconds to respond. What could be the cause of this please?

My laptop specs are;

 

HP

Processor - 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1135G7 @ 2.40GHz 2.42 GHz

RAM - 12.0 GB (11.7 GB usable)

OS - Windows 10 Home

 

I will really appreciate any help on this.

  • Snoue , How much memory is taken by browsers? Browsers can lot of memory, make sure power bi is having sufficient memory. If needed increase VM

      Hi amitchandak 

      Thanks for responding. I actually closed my browser to see if that would help but it did not

      This is the memory usage for the programs running currently

        Snoue , Please check if there is windows update pending, I faced that once. Power bi was lagging and that got corrected after windows update
