Upon further research... i came to know that you can't display the image from the local folder becasue of the Auth issue...
Now the question is... Can you just show that IMAGE location as a link so it can be opened in Windows (like Explorer file command etc.,)
Thanks

Hi vmonu ,
You could change data category to image URL in Power BI Desktop. Then it will show per image automatically.

Helper II
The problem is the image NOT in the url... It's in the local folder... (multiple images say employee photos_
So , unless it's not showing (based on what i read thru you and other posts) unless i convert each of them.
Is there any other option say ( just give the folder path alone... say C:\local\employee1.jpg) and thereby the user clicking it opens an IE or webbrower to show the image... (like using the file command etc.,)
Thanks again for your help
