Microsoft EmployeeUnable to Launch Power BI Desktop
I tried to uninstall again and installed 32 bit from this link - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=45331 and it worked. Dont know why the Power BI Desktop app from Windows Store Did not work.
Thanks

You could try the following
- Press Windows key + X, select Command prompt (Admin) to bring up elevated Command prompt.
- In Command prompt type sfc /scannow and press enter.
- Restart the computer.
Or you can try re-registering kernelbase.dll and check.
- Press Windows Key + X and click on Command Prompt (Admin)
- Type regsvr32 KERNELBASE.dll and hit Enter.
- Restart your computer and check.
Hope this helps you. Let us know if that works

I tried to install the 32 bit version, and although I could open the installer, while running it stop and a box pops telling me that to continue installing it I need to close MS PBI Desktop.
The app isn't actually open, so I do not know what could be preventing the installation to move forward.
Any thoughts in getting the software installed?
Thank you,

The PBI Desktop app isn't actually open, since it is not installed. Somehow, the app uninstalled by itself. I tried to find it to remove it, and it is not actually installed anymore.
