Hi all, I successfully add some data into my PowerBi Desktop, I then have a bar at the tiop that asks me to apply changes or discard changes (there is no data showing under the 'Fields' tab). When I click Apply Changes I get presented with this error -
I have no idea what it means sorry?

Hi @nickcurry ,
According to the error message in your screenshot, it seems that it is required to install 64-biy version of the Access Database Engine. Please try to download it from this downloads page and install it, later check if you can apply change successfully...
