Cancelling measure while creating gets stuck in endless loop

1. Created measure

2. While measure was updating local model, I hit cancel (didn't want the measure created)

3. I now have a measure part-created called 'Measure' and every time I try to update/remove it, I get the error "The model doesn't have a measure named Measure on table XXX."
4. Stuck in endless loop.  Every time I click something, I get the same error and only option is to click 'Close', which repeats step 3.

No way to save.  Lost about 3hrs of work.

  • Something that helped was saving using Control+S. Then I was able to close and reopen the same report, and everything was saved.
  • The same thing happened to me. Luckily, it was only 40 minutes' worth of work, and Power BI was able to recover some of my work, but I had to force my computer to close Power BI from the Task Manager since I couldn't save or close the report.
