PowerBI Desktop Crashes released Jan 29 2016 crashing

Wondering if only me, but just downloaded the latest Power BI desktop and it crashes without being to open anything. Anyone else having this issue? TIA

I have no issues.  Maybe download a fresh copy and try again

      Ok, uninstalled the new version.  Re-booted (just in case) and downloaded new version again and installed.  Still crashing!

      Decided to go back to prevous version (I had saved the file) and am able to open PowerBI with no issues.

      Maybe I will just wait until it decides to auto update.

        Can you elaborate on "crashing"? Did it give you any error messages? Did it just quit without anything? Does it crash when you open a file or when you just run the exe?
