Hi, this has been happening this last month, I keep the power BI updated and even with the last update I still can't see most of the times the data updating progress (just show q window in blank as in the image bellow the big gray block). This happens most of the time, but sometimes I can see the progress when I click in "Atualizar" (Update Data button).
If I wait the window will close so then I know that the refresh was completed.
There is a solution for this please? It's just me with this problem?

What solved for me was reinstalling Power BI. The version was always the last one and even updating over it was not solving, only reinstalling solve it.

Not an "only you" problem. It has happened randomly several times to me. Even I noticed that sometimes it isn't doing anything. My recommendation is to either wait or close from Windows bar/icons menu that specific window. I hope it gets fixed for next refresh.
