Hi, If the file itself is corrupted (not just a display glitch), there is unfortunately no way to restore report pages from the current .pbix file. Only data model content is preserved; visuals must be rebuilt.

- Try opening it in an older Power BI Desktop version
- If visuals are really gone, you’ll need to rebuild pages from the data model
