Microsoft starter kit not installing

N00b here..

I have been trying to install the Microsoft starterkit to get the PowerBi Macro, but when I run the installer and select install just the starter kit (You already have Alteryx Designer installed) it says "Can't install as you don't have Alteryx Designer installed"... but I do.. I am using it...!

And I don't want to proceed with installation with Alteryx designer option selected as it might muck up my existing installation which is just working fine.

 

Any ideas gratefully received. 

Thanks

just below it, there is an option of alteryx already installed.

As Raj mentioned, you should see an option to install the starter kit without having to (re-)install Designer.

If the primary reason you are installing the Microsoft Starter Kit is get access to the Microsoft Power BI Output tool, you can install that directly here: https://help.alteryx.com/20223/designer/microsoft-power-bi-output-tool

Thanks... I was trying to install without installing Designer.. that was the option I chose but it wasn't working. 
However, your direct link to the tool was helpful and it installed beautifully. Thanks @itohan
