Installing Power BI Desktop from the Storeīefore installing the store version of Power BI Desktop, it’s a good idea to uninstall the older version. To be sure, it is not a separate “Microsoft Store Edition” of the product, but precisely the same product in a Windows Centennial (presumably) wrapper. Getting Power BI Desktop from the Windows store allows you to have it automatically updated in the background whenever new versions are available, just like any other app in the store.

Thankfully, the availability of Power BI Desktop in the Microsoft store removes this pain.
#MICROSOFT POWER BI DESKTOP FOR MAC UPDATE#
While I think that most of us welcome the new features, this update process itself is cumbersome. Once you do, you can run the installer and then you’re up to date. Doing so can take a few minutes (it’s relatively large), and when it starts, more often than not, you’ve forgotten to exit the current PBI Desktop. Then you do click on the prompt, you’re take to a web page from which to download PBI Desktop. Of course, you normally don’t notice this until you’re in the middle of designing something, and it’s never a good time. In case you miss it, a little indicator will light up in the bottom right hand corner that will prompt you to update. Once per month, a new Power BI Desktop is released, and normally it contains at least one new feature that you WILL want to use.
If you’re a Power BI Desktop user, you are likely familiar with the monthly update cadence.
