    In September 2017 we announced that Power BI Desktop is available through the Windows Store, giving automatic updates: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-at-ignite-2017-announcing-enterprise-ready-capabilities-for-establishing-data-culture-at-scale/

    If you're not able to update to Windows 10, vote for this idea so that Power BI Desktop can be made available through Microsoft Update to older versions of Windows.

    Windows Store is not an option for organizations using W10 LTSB. Windows Update feature is needed.

    The Windows store is not a good solution for Enterprise Organizations that use SCCM package deployments to control the environment and desktops.
