As I wrote in my problem description, I cant’ sart power BI desktop correctly on my laptop. I tried several things like install, uninstall framework and so one. I also tried to install/uninstall (more than one time.. ) the 32 bits version and the 64 bit version. When I install the 32 bits version, the program succeed to start and I can use powerbi almost normaly but as soon as I want to put a visualization on the designer, I catch this error message (Can’t display the visual) When I trie to install the 64 bits version powerBi does’nt lauch at all. It freezing on the first screen “Initializing model” and than I catch the error message : "we weren't able to connect to the model". May I precise it's my firt start of power Bi on this lapto. I already install it on another laptot without problem. Please help me !!!

For me the issue recently appeared, after installing the Windows anniversary update. Since then I can't start Power BI Desktop. Note: The same PowerBI Desktop machine was working fine on the machine before installing the Windows anniversary update (current PBI Desktop release)
