    Finally, I found the route cause!!

    Personal gateway doesn't support "DirectQuery" mode. So I can't find gateway in datasets. 

     

    I created a brand new PBIX file using "import data" instead of "DirectQuery". Now I can use personal gateway.

Look in Services. It should be listed there as running.

OK, here's my situation.

I downloaded two on-pre gateways both, enterprise and personal.

I installed personal version, login my organization account, I didn't find on-pre gateway in windows servise even the software shows it's running online.

Then I installed enterprise version, but I can't login my organization account, but I found "On-presmies gateway" in servise, showed it's running.

However, either way I tried didn't workout. I still see nothing in "Manage gateways" of Power BI website.
