Error message in Power BI desktop

Sometimes I get this error message in Power Bi Desktop. I guess it's related with choosing a theme file. I have to confirm this several times before it finally disappears. Any idea how to get rid of it?

    I found a solution.

    I deinstalled Power Bi Desktop coming from the Microsoft Store, and installed the regular downloadble version instead.

    Now everything is working properly without any error messages.

    Hi Anonymous,

     

    Is above error message prompted by Power BI desktop? What operation did you make that caused this error in desktop?

     

    Best regards,

      Yes it is Version: 2.52.4921.682 64-bit (November 2017) from the store.

      It happens when I open an existing report, which uses a Live-Dataset from the service.

      Because the theme colours are not correctly displayed, I reopen the json theme. As I open the dialog to import the json-file the error message appears.

       

      Best regards,

      Andreas
