Hmm upgrade is the option you want. However, I suspect you somehow were served the old version of the .exe from the CDN as you should only see one option when upgrading. If you see three options in the UI then you are running the same version of the installer that is already installed (this allows you to Upgrade Edition, Repair and Uninstall). Please double check the version of the installer is Version: 1.9.7627.11028 (Build 15.0.1104.264). If the version is not this one please try the above url again as it takes some amount of time to propogate to all download.microsoft.com CDNs around the world.


When upgrading you should see this screen:

 

Not this one:

 

If you have the correct version and are seeing the single upgrade option. Are you able to reboot your machine and launch the new PowerBIReportServer.exe again?


Alternatively you can try the command line install by running the following:

PowerBIReportServer.exe /quiet /noreboot
