Bug Can't Apply Changes and Save Report

I recently downloaded the most recent version of PBI Desktop from the advanced downloads online. I have an issue now that after adding three new datasources (all MS SQL DBs tables) I can't apply the changes from power query editor. I click apply changes and it evaluates but then just closes the loading page and does not actually add anything to the model. I have tried closing power bi and restarting computer same issue. Tried reinstalling with the repair. Same issue. It doesn't fail and it loads fine in PQE. If I click the close button on the top right, it says I have changes do you want to apply. If I click apply and save it does the same thing. Anyone having this issue too? This is what I see when it runs.

Apparently, it's a known bug that's being investigated.

Hi @JaromBIDEVatDK ,

 

Did you solve your problem? Did the clear cache mentioned by @lbendlin help you?

 

If you click the refresh button, does the data load properly into the model?

Are there any error messages reported in the Power Query Editor?

 

Best Regards,
Winniz

Have you tried clearing the cache in the options dialog?
