Hi everyone.  Thanks for the help.

I posted the same thread on the PAD forum and the solution that best works was to actually send keys

1. 'Send keys' {LWin} (Windows key)

2. 'Send keys' Power BI

3. 'Send keys' {Return} (Enter)

This worked. someone else recommended " mspbi: " URI scheme. But I did not test this one as the previous one was already working for me.

Thanks again

Phil

@Pmorg73 , I think for that you might have to prefer the download version as you have better control over that.
