- 3 years ago
No option to UN-Unistall in control panel ... so I looked fo rthe folder, couldnt find it, logic tells me remove it so Power Bi can install it so I figured if out
First find the version of webview you have on your system by doin the following:
click windows icon type "cmd"
right click on app and select run as dministratorresult is
Type into cmd the following command:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\EdgeWebView\Application\
Next type "DIR" dir and press enter
You will notice a version number marked in image belowType DIR and the VERSION and "\Installer" into cmd
in my case it looks like this :
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\EdgeWebView\Application>cd 118.0.2088.46\InstallerPress enter
Remove Webview2
Type the followng command:
setup.exe --uninstall --msedgewebview --system-level --verbose-logging --force-uninstall
Press Enter
you will notice the same directory line is given after its done.
Close CMD open Power BI, it will flash (in my case) and install the Webview2 it requires and open Power BI
DONE!
