problems

Hello,

For two weeks I have been trying to run the power bi program and I cannot succeed in doing so

When I run the program it displays this interface for a long time .. I waited for it for more than 10 minutes and yet the application did not open

I deleted the application and re-downloaded it

And I explored the problems from the programs and tried to fix them without success

Please I need a definite solution

Hi @an22o

Make sure your computer meets the following minimum requirements to run Power BI Desktop.
Get Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn


Power BI Desktop is no longer supported on Windows 8.1.

  • Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016 or later.
  • .NET 4.7.2 or later.
  • Microsoft Edge browser (Internet Explorer is no longer supported)
  • Memory (RAM): At least 2 GB available, 4 GB or more recommended.
  • Display: At least 1440x900 or 1600x900 (16:9) required. Lower resolutions such as 1024x768 or 1280x800 aren't supported because some controls (such as closing the startup screens) display beyond those resolutions.
  • Windows display settings: If you set your display to change the size of text, apps, and other items to more than 100%, you won't see some dialogs that you must interact with to continue using Power BI Desktop. If you encounter this issue, check your display settings in Windows by going to Settings >System >Display, and use the slider to return display settings to 100%.
  • CPU: 1 gigahertz (GHz) 64-bit (x64) processor or better recommended.
  • WebView2: If WebView2 wasn't automatically installed with Power BI Desktop or if it was uninstalled,download and run the installer for WebView2.
