Error returned: 'The following system error occurred: Error in the DLL'.
Just started using Power BI Desktop and facing an issue with clean setup:
- Open Power BI Desktop
- Click "Pasta data into a blank table" (or excel, python script option, etc. does not seem to be different)
- Enter any value into table, click "Load"
- Application loads for a bit and then presents error:
Failed to save modifications to the server. Error returned: 'The following system error occurred: Error in the DLL'.
Tried restarting PC, reinstalling Power BI Desktop from Microsoft store. Seems something is broken/corrupted, but no idea what.
Hi VincasRama ,
As far as I know, the Power BI Desktop version from Microsoft store should be a test version for next version.
So there may be some problems when you are using it.
Here I suggest you to download the latest version from website. In myside, I have a test from this version and it works.

That doesn't look like a standard menu. What version of Power BI Desktop are you using?
Should look like this:
Whatever was latest in MS Store, but apparently that is not stable and using web download fixed the issue
