Visualization not updating to current version

Hello. My visualizations are not updating to their current version. I have updated my Power BI desktop to the latest version but the visualizations have not updated. E.g. Microsoft Gantt is still stuck on version 2.3.3. It should be 3.0.4.0. All visualizations are affected. My desktop version of P-BI is 2.128.751.0. How can I update the visualizations to current versions?

    Hi Vistazo ,

     

    Custom visuals do not update automatically, the only visualizations that are updated when you update Power BI desktop are the standard ones.

     

    For the custom visualizations update you always need to do the download from the app source store.

    Perhaps I did not explain mysefl enough. So I did update the Gantt visual from the appsource. Here are the steps I took: Home > More Visuals > From AppSource > Click Gantt Microsoft Corporation tile > click Add > message: "Visual Already Exists. The report already contains a copy of this visual version 3.0.4.0 ..." And yet when I inspect the Gantt visual in my report, it is still version 2.2.3. I have also tried removing the visual completely and installing it again. No change, it won't update. I have tried uninstalling Power BI Desktop completely and reinstalling the very latest version. No change.
