@DataEngineerAT I got the same error. Seems to be a bug. I have explained the reason and workaround here:

Hi @DataEngineerAT ,

Please try to rename the measure then try to open .pbip file again.

For more information about .pbip file, you can read related document: Power BI Desktop projects (PBIP) - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

Hi,
I will not rename the measure, as it is perfectly working in .pbix and in the service and is in production for many reports!
So, it is a bug in fabric and has to befixed.
