As of the 0.148.6 update, an extra step is required.
As per the patch notes
- Ingame console disabled by default (add launch argument "-console" to enable)

To add the launch argument do the following.

- Right-click Valheim and select Properties.
- Click General on the left side of the window.
- Enter "-console", without the " " in the box under Launch Options.
- Close that window and launch the game.
