[Anonymous]

Power BI does not start after Windows 11 updates:

Hi @Anonymous 

When you update the components of your Windows system, the components of PBI Desktop may be affected. If you reinstall Desktop through the Microsoft Store, you may not be able to run PBI Desktop properly due to missing files.
In this case, you can go to Download center to download the latest installation package and reinstall it, before reinstalling you need to go to Control panel to uninstall Desktop completely.

There are some minor differences between the downloads in different places, you can refer to the official documentation.

Get Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

Thank you very much @Anonymous 

That worked!

Also Windows Update had another one waiting this morning, maybe fixing what was broken yesterday:

2023-06 .NET 6.0.18 Security Update for x64 Client (KB5027797)
