Hi Jim, sorry for delay
Don't solve yet, and the mysql connection is the same.
Please uninstall add the old Mysql provider components and install the latest version, then check if this issue persists.

Check if the connection providor works correctly, also check if the bit version of connection provider is same with mysql and power bi desktop.
