It is highly frustrating that PowerBI Desktop requires admin permissions to install. As PowerBI Desktop is improved each month it is proving difficult to get Corporate ICT to keep updating the versions. Office 365 components like Teams don't require admin permissions. Please could Microsoft tweak the PowerBI installation.

Add Power BI to Software Centre or use Microsoft Store.

100% agree with this, it is frustrating and obstructive when having to wait for our ICT to action.
