Creating a Connection to a Folder - Only seeing Desktop in window

Hi

 

When I create a folder connection, I only see Desktop in the browse window.

 

 

Has anyone come across this or might someone have a fix for this to be able to see all of the folders on my PC.

 

Thanks

Hugh

    Hi HughLa,

     

    If you right click on 'Desktop' do you have an option to expand?

     

     

    If not you might need to get the path from a finder window and paste it over.

      Hey AntonioM 

      Thanks for the reply.

       

      No, it is disabled.

       

      I am aware that I can copy and paste the folder path, but I would like to know what causes this.

       

      Thanks

      Hugh

    It seems that with one of the latest Power BI updates this has been fixed.
