Hi @Anonymous ,

Which of the following methods did you use to install your Power BI Desktop?

  1. Install as an app from the Microsoft Store.
  2. Download directly, as an executable you download and install on your computer.

If it is the first way, it will only appear in the Start menu, you can find it and right click "Uninstall".

If it is the second way, you can uninstall Power BI Desktop by opening the "Apps & features" page and find it to uninstall just as you mentioned in the post.
