Hi rocky09 ,

 

Thank you for your patience and confirmation. We will update here as soon as we figure out the reason.

 

Please also Get the latest version of Power BI Desktop from the Download Center. If you're running Windows 10, you can also get Power BI Desktop from Microsoft Store on Windows 10.


Best regards,

I got the latest version at the time of my first post (12/30).  I always download from the downlooad center instead of the Microsoft Store because I had an issue at one point where the version from the download center was different than the one from the MS Store.  It was not that they were different releases, it was that they were released at the same time, but were different.  I had both installed on my PC and they didn't like each other.  I finally got rid of the one from the MS Store and only go get the one from the download center now when it seems like there should be a new release or I notice one of my colleagues has a newer version because I won't get a notification.  How is it supposed to notify us?  Is it supposed to show up in the Windows notification area or is it something inside the app itself?
