I have been searching for a 32-bit version of Power BI Report Builder.
I was able to find 32-bit versions of Power BI Desktop here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/fundamentals/desktop-latest-update-archive?tabs=powerbi-d...
Is there a separate location for the report builder downloads that would include the x86 installer?
Thank you!
Unfortunately, that link will only download the msi installer. Which seems will only install the version it thinks is appropriate for your architecture. I am trying to do something a bit non-standard to attempt to get report builder to work with the postgres odbc drivers. The constraints in my setup:
- Running Windows 11 ARM
- Postgres ODBC driver for amd64 bit will not install and will not work. However, the 32 bit driver does (x86).
- Using the 32 bit version of power bi desktop I was able to get it connected through the 32 bit odbc drivers.
So, that led me down the path of hoping that microsoft had a 32-bit version of Report Builder such that I can do the same thing.
Everything else about Report Builder on ARM seems fine, but it looks like lower level drivers are hit and miss.
Is there a way to force the MSI installer to use the 32 bit version? (I have no idea how they work and some internet searching suggests that they often contain multiple architectures of a particular software)
Or if there are other people running report builder on Windows 11 ARM with a postgres odbc connection, any suggestions.
