4 years agoRunning 32bit portable Power BI
Hey guys, I hope everything is okay.
Do you know if it's possible to run a portable version of 32-bit Power BI?
I have installed the 64bit version, but I need to connect to a DB in 32bit mode. I cannot install 2nd PBI version, so I thought of copying the 32bit installation folder of another computer and running the exe from there.
The program loads and I can open files/connect to DB but when I try to import data it says the Oledb class is not registered.
Does anyone know a way of running a fully featured version of PBI in 32bit mode without installing it?

Not the same but for passive mode install. See if that can offer help
