Hi @dshay250 

 

I would recommend cleaning out Alteryx files from your current installation and re-install Designer.

 

  • Go to "Add / Remove Apps" and uninstall all versions of Alteryx
  • Go to C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Local and delete the Alteryx Folder
  • Go to C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming and delete the Alteryx Folder
  • Delete everything from the Temp Folder
  • Remove all broken links for Alteryx in the start menu (I personally don't like to see links to apps that are not installed)
  • Download and install the newest version of the Alteryx Designer app (an any other apps that you may want, Intelligence Suite, Predictive tools, etc.)
  • Open the newly installed Alteryx Designer app and test

 

Hope this helps. If it does, please like the post and mark it as a solution.
