  2. I  select my available workspace.
  3. Click on select.
  4. I  click on Open report name” in Power Bi”.

 

We  got this message only if I publish report for  Virtual server.

    The following steps resolved the issue.

    1.) Navigate to Control Panel | Default Programs.

    2.) Click Associate a file type or protocol with a specific program.

    3.) Locate HTTP towards the bottom of the list.

    4.) Highlight HTTP.

    5.) Click the Change program button.

    6.) Select Internet Explorer as the default program.

    7.) Click Close.

    8.) Relaunch Migration Manager for Enterprise

  • Hi there

    I would suggest chatting to the person who looks after the VM and ask them why this is happening.

    I work daily on a VM and do not have any issues opening and using Power BI Deskop
