Version Change Error

Hello, I am just getting started in Power  BI.  I had the software installed on two different computers with different version numbers. Download dates were at least several months apart.  I got an error saying that the file could not be opened because the software was out of date.

 

I would like to know how common this type of error would be for me and my clients.  How often will we need to upgrade all at the same time?

 

Thanks for your help!

@BradleyA,

 

It is better to update it once a month. To help improve Power BI, leave a comment on this idea.
