Hi @Anonymous ,

so you already installed the Power BI Desktop Client and now you try to open a .pbix file but the App wont start? 

May be you uninstall the Client and install the newest Version?

 

Best,

Kathrin

Looking at the icon has a power bi logo, it seems like you had power BI seems to have corrupted or the current user does not have access. 

Maybe you have to reinstall.
