Issue with latest version Power BI Desktop August 2024

Hello,

Seems facing issue with Power BI Desktop latest version Aug 2024, as i am not able to open any report and getting the below error. 

encounter the same thing in its entirety. I was unable to locate any information on it (or the August upgrade, for that matter)
Nothing I attempted to change the situation seemed to:
- For the first time, I saw the problem without even opening a report.
Issue when trying multiple reports.
I received the issue when I opened and closed the software, both with and without reports.

Hi all ,

The installer of PBI Desktop was updated on the 21st, so if you have problems installing PBI Desktop before, you can uninstall it and download the latest installer to update it.

I did what @trevorbwhite2 advised in the case and uninstalled power bi entirely and re-install. I can now open power bi without the error.
