Error with sign in

Thanks for your support here. It looks like it might have been a proxy issue. "netstat -o" was showing that my laptop was trying to connect to a 10. address even when I wasn't connected to a VPN. I'll try again tomorrow to see if that was definitely the cause.

Yes, it was definitely the proxy. I needed to turn the corporate proxy settings off while working from home and not connected to the VPN. Since I've done that I've had no issues getting signed in to Power BI Desktop.
Thanks everyone for their help!
Clear your browser cache. Sometimes if you've provided your credentials for a browser-based application and those credentials are different than those you use for Desktop.....Desktop can get confused. It worked for me, hoping it works for you.
THanks,
