    Hi, Samy-Elsayed ;

    This is normally due to anti-virus or some other software on the device interfering with Webview2. 
    To workaround this issue for now, you can go to File->Options and Settings -> Options -> Preview Features and disable the "Power BI Desktop Infrastructure Update" feature switch. That should stop using WebView2. Or if you cannot start the desktop to get to the Preview feature switches, you can set the following Environment variable to disable WebView2 Environment Variable : "PBI_enableWebView2Preview" Value: "0".
