Big Query: Unexpected error: Container exited unexpectedly with code 0xC0000005

I have been getting this message on refresh. All my data sits in Big Query. I am using Simba Driver on the desktop version.


Unexpected error: Container exited unexpectedly with code 0xC0000005.

 

My model is not that extreme, less than 1M rows across all input tables.

 

Power BI is so unreliable!!

Nah, I fixed my problem but differently. I offloaded some of the joins to Big Query server and started to import joined data.

Hi @danzrust,

Based on my research, you could refer to below link that may have the same error code with you:

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Power-BI-64-bit-Application-Error-0xc0000005/td-p/480480

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/broken-gateway-installer/idi-p/526303

And I suggest you istall the latest version of Power BI Desktop(2.63.3272.40262 64-bit (October 2018)).
