Hi Yolo Zhu,

 

Thanks for replying.

I do have Python setup in the options 
(I've been using Python in Power Queries for the past few weeks) 

Just to confirm - PowerBi documents which already contain Python script(s) continue to work.

However, if I try to edit the script (via the advanced editor), any changes throw the error:

(Note: Clicking continue does nothing)

IF I try to paste code into a script (via the advanced editor), it throws the error:

 

I did try uninstalling and reinstalling (installing from the Microsoft Store).
It didn't make any difference.
However, I did notice, when launching PowerBI after re-installation that the 'Recent' file list remained populated.
(I don't know if there are any extra steps required to filly clear PowerBI from the system).
I will try uninstalling & reinstalling again today.


Thanks!
