Can't open a model template: Multiple connect-windows during opening PBIT with SQL(AD authorization)

I have a problem when I try to open my pbit-model. The model has parameterized SQL Server name, and during choosing one of this list PowerBI Desktop starts multiple SQL-connect windows:

Until you close all windows, the model doesn't allow you to go next. Sometimes if you close the model with Task Manager you could get a Power BI feedback window with an issue about WebView2.

Hi @artemselkov ,

 

It may be related to the credentials. You may try to go to Data source settings-->Select a data source and then edit permissions

By the way, I'd suggest you always use the latest version of Power BI Desktop to avoid unexpected errors.
