Unable to launch "allow this app from an unknown publisher to make changes to your device" Win10
Hi I have admin rights on my computer (windows 10) and can install BusinessOps. However, when I try and launch the program I get the pop-up warning about allowing an app from an unknown publisher and, even, though I am admin and am able to enter username/password nothing is launched.
I have tried versions 3.1.5 and 3.1.4.
I am able to directly install Power BI external tools such as DAX studio with no problem.
Do I need the IT department need to add BusinessOps as a trusted publisher? Where is the certificate for this to be found?
Or is there something I am missing in the installation process?

More info: the program retains its User Account Control (UAC) shield logo even after installation. Is this correct behaviour? Does it always require admin privileges to run? I checked the activity, and when launching the program there are 3 Business Ops background processes but no Business ops user interface appears.
I am getting the same behaviour and even when I re-enter admin details, the business ops is failing to run. It worked ok on a much older version. I see the file appear briefly in task manager and then vanish. There is an error in the windows event log, Faulting application name: BusinessOps.exe, version: 3.1.5.0, time stamp: 0x63f515b7 Faulting module name: BusinessOps.exe, version: 3.1.5.0, time stamp: 0x63f515b7 Exception code: 0x80000003 Fault offset: 0x00000000018d3684 Faulting process ID: 0x4404 Faulting application start time: 0x01db508686287338 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\BusinessOps\BusinessOps.exe Faulting module path: C:\Program Files\BusinessOps\BusinessOps.exe Report ID: a54820de-611a-4be3-8eac-1e776969b61a Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID:
Uninstalling and reinstalling yields the same result.
@MikeCarlo, it looks like something is broken in the codesigning pipeline. It signs the installer EXE, but not the app EXE.
After installing the application, first I am not able to see this under External tool in power BI desktop, and when trying to open, getting popup as "Do you want to allow this app from an unknown publisher to make changes to your device?" but even after clicking on "Yes", application is not opening. 😒
@vishal-nasre Business Ops is not an external tool itself. It is a package manager of external tools. When you run Business Ops, you can use it to install external tools for Power BI Desktop.
@JamesDBartlett3 but how do I install external tool when I am not able to open the Business Ops itself.
There may be a security policy on your computer that prevents you from opening Business Ops.

Create a shortcut with the --no-sandbox option. After that the BusinessOps will run. https://github.com/MikeCarlo/BusinessOps/issues/20#issuecomment-3426475903
