I'm having the same issue. It's very frustrating. There hasn't been any known changes to my computer. I am just a user of Power BI too. Not an IT person so I have no idea what to do.

I presented the same problem.

I am also seeing this problem. If I look into the logs I see the following:

GWConfig.exe Error: 0 : Login to PowerBI failed. Couldn't reach https://app.powerbi.com

I see the same problem with both a fresh and current installation, on multiple computers on multiple networks.

Similar issue here this morning as well affecting multiple compuers/users.  I'm not aware of any updates made to these computers recently.
 
As soon as we open the Personal Gateway it displays the error:
GWConf has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Please close the program.
