Hello dear community,
A friend sent me power bi report from zip file. But I don't know how to open it.
Can anyone tell me how can I open it please? There are a lot of unknown files in zip file. But I just can't find .pbix
@Akbarov maybe change the extension of the file to pbix and then open with power bi desktop.
