personal gateway - Configuration - FileNotFoundException

Hi,

 

We succeeded in installing Power BI Personal gateway but when we try to configure the service the screen hangs on Please wait while we check a few more things...

 

When I check eventvwr (Windows 2012 R2 standard) I see the following

I am also having the same problem. I am using Windows 7 Home Premium.  

 

I have searched and tried several things but to no avail.

 

Can MicroSoft Experts please provide help as I am preparing some poc for prospective customers.
