Hi, @Robert14358 
On the Settings menu of the Power BI service, select Manage portal. In the left pane, select Tenant settings, and then look at the Dataflow settings section to turn on the toggle for Enabled. You can check out the links below:

I am assuming it's the fist one, if you hover over and nothing happens, try opening Power BI Service in a different browser and/or cleaning caché of the current browser and refreshing it.

also, normally it gives the little hand when hovering over the name of the dataflow, but it doesnt show that anymore either.

i am the only owner and member of the workspace

What's the screen you see? Also, check if the credentials need to be updated.

Are you still the owner of the dataflow? That usually happens when someone took over its ownership.
