I'm using a premium license and I have a medium sized dataset that I use to generate several other reports through a live connection.
I really want to use this for consistency and in order to avoid having to refresh all these reports manually.
My issue is that I'm usually getting this error:
Sometimes it works after restarting the computer, sometimes after trying to open it 5 or 6 times.
Is there anything I can do?
Thanks in advance

Dear @v-juanli-msft I've been currently using 2.73.5586.1101 64-bit (september 2019)
Running it as administrator present some issues, since it's only our IT team that's allowed to run applications as such.
