At the top of your Power Query add these steps
- replace values . with nothing
- replace values , with .
- change type to fixed deminal number
Thanks for reaching out for help.
I put in a lot of effort to help you, now please quickly help me by giving kudos.
Remember we are unpaid volunteers and here to coach you with Power BI and DAX skills and techniques, not do the users job for them. So please click the thumbs up and accept as solution button.
If you give someone a fish then you only give them one meal, but if you teach them how to fish then they can feed themselves and teach others for a lifetime. I prefer to teach members on this forum techniques rather give full solutions and do their job. You can then adapt the technique for your solution, learn some DAX skills for next time and soon become a Power BI Super User like me.
One question per ticket please. If you need to extend your request then please raise a new ticket.
You will get a quicker response and each volunteer solver will get the kudos they deserve. Thank you !

Is not working
It gives me as a value -657054
The original value was -6,570.54
So the result should be -6570.54
Only deleating (,) not points (.) because I still have decimal number
Power BI
Original File (I have correct values like this and incorrect) the files are in a SP, and they are random so I don't want to affect the correct numbers, like this case... Can I only change the errors?
Correct
Incorrect
Is the same with "Fixed Decimal Number"
