Local certificate not found

Platform: Windows 11

powerbi-visuals-tools version: 4.0.8
Location: UK, so any date formats will be dd/MM/yyyy

I do pbiviz --install-cert and follow the default windows installation steps. I create a new project and do pbiviz start and I get this text:

Hi,

 

Platform: Windows 10 Pro (re-installed week ago)

powerbi-visuals-tools version: 4.3.2

Firefox
Location: UK, so any date formats will be dd/MM/yyyy

 

Sorry to re-open it.

I have exact same issue. However restart didn't help 😞

I sucesfully install it on my desktop. However laptop don't like me.

 

After execute command:   pbiviz --install-cert    I get line with 'info powerbi-visuals-tools version - 4.3.2'. Then window to install cert is opened. I go through all clicks to install, window is closed, cmd back to line. However when I check certmgr there is no cert and localhost:8080/assets back to me with error.

 

Any idea?

Thx
