At least don't use local profile storage but roaming profile storage instead!

There is a registry for disabling Update Notification: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Power BI Desktop] "DefaultUICulture"="en-US" "UpdateCheckUrl"="https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=524399" "DisableUpdateNotification"=dword:00000001
