SQLite error code=1 ("SQL error occurred or database is missing") when opening PBIX files downloaded
1. Power BI keeps internal metadata in a SQLite store inside the PBIX. Your older Desktop doesn't recognize the newer schema, so it fails to read it and reports code=1
2. Yes, that's it. The files that open are from colleagues on your version or older. The ones that fail are from newer builds.
Fix: get everyone on the latest Desktop. Version drift across the team is the real problem, not the files.
