Error when installing personal gateway

Hi,

I'm installing a personal gateway on an windows 10 machine and I'm getting this error when trying to log in into my corporate account. I had the personal gateway installed previously and then I uninstalled and at the moment of installing it again, but I'm facing this error. Any clue on how to solve it?

 

Thanks!

@ezequiel,

Please reboot your machine after you uninstall the gateway, and make sure you download the latest installion package, then check if you get any errors.

Hi Lydia, no luck. I reboot the machine after uninstalling and when installing again, I still have the same error. I'm adding the image. Any idea? This is driving me crazy!Capture.PNG

@ezequiel

I would recommend you open a support ticket on the support.powerbi.com site.
