Same problem here - the most recent update has made it almost unusable. Simple things like getting data from an excel workbook is completely broken - the screen freezes and Power BI exits completely without any errors. Power BI team, can you fix this problem as soon as possible. I cannot send any error logs or a frown because the Power BI desktop application exits without any message whatsoever when getting data from Excel. It would be nice to get access to the previous version while you sort it out - as you can see many of the comments in here point to similar issues

Hi guys, same problem here. with latest version of power BI desktop. I've had to completely uninstall it and right now, I'm desperate surfing the web trying to find version 2.28 or any other previous version which works correctly. Any update?

I need to downgrade to the August version ASAP!! I have put many hours of time and effort creating a usable dashboard for my company. Since upgrading the to the September version, I can't do ANYTHING! I get error after error after error. I have a presentation in a week and if I don't get this working, I'm not going to be able to sell this product to my company.

Moreover, I cannot update to the new version if I don't have the installation package for the currently installed version.

Some organizations have only approved older versions of Microsoft Power BI. Please make available for download the older versions of Power BI.

I am getting an error in one of my models after upgrading to the Oct 2016 release and I need to roll back to Sept 2016. One of my colleagues has the previous installer, but this would've saved me some time to hunt it down. Cheers.

All users of our Public organization must have the same version of the PBI desktop. In case we discard accidently our package, we absolutely need to recover the install package of the version in use. Please make available for download the older versions of Power BI (up to 12 months)
