I encountered the same issue with the Power BI Desktop May 2025 version while running it on a Mac using Parallels. However, I discovered that the problem occurs when using measures that contain IF or SWITCH statements.

As a workaround, I was able to rewrite these measures using a DIVIDE(expression, if valid then 1 else 0) strategy. I hope this helps you overcome the issue and assists v-venuppu Microsoft in gaining a better understanding of its root cause.

 

BTW: I still find it surprising that the issue does not occur on an Intel-based machine.
