pop up messages and side bars

[Roo_The_Poo]

Is there anyway of disabling the pop up messages in Power Bi Desktop.  We've got a auto start process and the following message always appears "formatting just got easier...".  Other messages appears on occasions.  Also is there a way of minimising the visualisation and fields on startup.

we have a shop floor terminal that displays data (with no keyboard/mouse) and it would be great if we could get rid of these if a restart should happen.

Thanks

HI, @Roo_The_Poo 

Even if you click "Got it" to close the popup, will the popup appear on the next startup?

I only encountered this popup the first time I installed and ran PowerbI Desktop.

If possible, try uninstalling the current version of PowerBI and reinstalling the latest version.

@Roo_The_Poo , I think you should open the page there from power bi service on full screen if they have internet

We have to use the desktop app due to the restrictions on the refresh rate.  So this isn't an option

Hi， @Roo_The_Poo 

Are you referring to popups like below?

Please go to ’File‘ -> ’Get Started‘ -> uncheck "Show this screen on startup" after you sign in your account

The pop-up interface (account is not logged in)

No it wasn't that message - it was a small pop up - that you cant seem to disable.  The thing is...Its just disapeered!!  Typical.
