I can select an Excel Workbook. I can select a worksheet and I see the table in the pane. However, the load button remains gray. This started happing today.
Been using the Power BI for weeks and everything was working.
Even the tables that did work do not work now.
I even went as for to uninstall Power BI and reinstall.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Solved! Go to Solution.
Above tick box is missing on your Power BI desktop or is it still there? If it's there try to update it to latest version and see.

I did not see the checkbox to the left of the spreadsheet file. I clicked the checkbox, and everything is working.
Thanks so much I was losing my mind.
