Unable to open Power BI Desktop "Unable to download KoForm.htm from pbi.microsoft.com"

Hi Guys,

 

For the last day I've been unable to open Power BI Desktop.

 

I get the following error when I attempt to open

If I click OK then the Power BI Desktop doesn't respond to anything.  I have to force close the application.

 

I have uninstalled and reinstalled, no change.  Tried both the x64 and x86 versions, exactly the same behaviour.

 

I am using the latest version - 2.119.986.0

 

I have seen a similar post but there was no real suggestion as to what resolved the problem apart from a Windows Update, but I have done all updates that I can.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I cannot use the Desktop at the moment, only the web version.

 

Thanks,

 

 

Matt.
