Couldn't load the schema for the database model

I got this issue unexpectedly. Re-installing of application doesn't help. I used only excel files for my project.

I tried solution with executing "C:\Program Files\Windows Defender\MpCmdRun.exe –resetplatform" and it doesn't help too.  Is it bug from 2018 still actual?

Hi  @aalfeeva ,

 

In addition to the error message, does it also meet the following scenarios:

In addition, visuals are blank in Report view and no fields on Fields pane. And in Data view, no tables there.

But in Model view, tables and fields can be seen.

If yes , it is a known issue , the ID is 315343906 . You can download and install an older version as a workaround. Previous monthly updates to Power BI Desktop and the Power BI service - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

If there is any news, I will come back and update .
