Everything I do in Power BI is buggy, including trying to download the latest version

I'm working on a T460 ThinkPad with adequate memory, at least capable of 64 bit processing, and PowerBI is always unstable on my machine.  If I try the 32 bit version, it crashes almost evertime I open it.  If I try the 64 bit version, the app screen wants to open larger than the computer window itself.

I even tried to download the latest version and the Microsoft Store won't open for me.  Is God trying to tell me something?

 

When it works, I've made a few tasks more expedient.  Butmostly, I'm reporting errors to Microsoft.

 

Does anyone else fight the app the whole time they are using it?
Thanks for letting me finally vent.
Arnold

This is a second reply.  But so far, the version I was now able to download, because you provided the link, is more stable.  So thank you @amitchandak .  Let's see if it stays that way.

Thank you @amitchandak for the link.

 

I'm using Windows 10, version 1909.

 

In addition, I have the i7 Intel chip running with 2.6GHz and 8 GB of RAM.
