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 am having the same problem. I have uninstalled and re-installed with a freshly downloaded copy to no avail. The Power BI Desktop splash screen comes up and says Initializing model for a little then I just get the ever useful "Microsoft Power BI Desktop has stopped working" with the option to debug or close program.

tcoleman Does your problem go away when you run as administrator?
