Failed to save modifications to the server error when refreshing a table

Hello - 

 

I'm trying to refresh a table I'm querying from a Salesforce object. It worked fine for 2 or so years, then about a month ago, it stopped refreshing. It would say "3,725 rows loaded", but before it completed, I would get this error:

 

"Failed to save modifications to the server. Error returned: 'There's not enough memory to complete this operation. Please try again later when there may be more memory available. '."

 

I was advised that moving to a Premium Per User instead Pro license would solve it, so I did that when it came available on 4/2, however, I'm still experiencing the issue. 

 

Any advice on what may be happening?

I have had a 32-bit version of PowerBi installed on my 64-bit computer. Installing a 64-bit PowerBI version solved the problem
