EDX training Lab 2 - could not find file 'PowerBI.accdb'

Dear developers. 

 

When loading the file Lab 2 - Starting. pbix  I obtain the following Error could not find file 'PowerBI.accdb' and all the tables can't be loaded. I've tried changing the source in the file but I'm not succesfull.

Can someone help me with this.

 

Thank you

I just created a folder Dat207x

 

Put the zips here and extracted them to this folder.

 

Then in Query editor refreshed the preview for each query.

There data files are in the Lab 1 section

 

https://github.com/MicrosoftLearning/Analyzing-Visualizing-Data-PowerBI/tree/master/Lab1

 

It's expecting the file in this location, so wither create this folder and extract the AccessDatabasePowerBI.zip contents here

C:\DAT207x\PowerBI.accdb

 

or update the file path in the Query editor to your preferred location.

 

 

 

 

 

I have located the files in that path and still not working.

I've also reinstlled the environment but nothing has changed.

What else can I try?
