PowerBI ok with 32bit PC?

Hi all, I have a laptop with 32-bit Windows 7 so I was wondering if PowerBI Desktop and Pro will work on my machine? Is anyone aware of any incompatibility issues?

Many thanks,

Harris

@steiner_zidane,

You are able to install 32-bit Power BI Desktop on your 32-bit Windows 7. You can check the requirements about Power BI Desktop in the article below. If you get any issues, you can post the issues in the forum.

In addition, it doesn't require Power BI pro to use Power BI Desktop, Power BI pro is a type of license which is used in Power BI Service. Power BI Service is a cloud service, you can use Power BI pro account or free account to sign in Power BI Service on your machine and use the features in it.
