Hi, I am getting an below unexpected error when I open PowerBI Desktop on my local windows machine.
When I click on the 'close' button it keeps on coming.
Can someone help me please.
Unexpected Error

Solved! Go to Solution.
Consider this as closed, I reinstalled Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5
Strange, I was having same version earlier, just reinstalled again 🙂
