Hi All,

 

I want to upload data(csv file) in the power desktop application but getting the below error.

Error Message:

Error Message Detail:
No OLE DB Error Information found."

Hi @MAmol,

 

 

1. Try to connect the csv file with another version, for example, if you are using the 64-bit version, try to install and use the 32-bit version.

Download Microsoft Power BI Desktop from Official Microsoft Download Center

 

2. Command Prompt -> Run as administrator -> sfc /scannow -> Enter and wait for completion
