I am unable to laod any data, specifically as simple as uploading a spreadsheet, to POWERBI. It is in essence useless at this point. I have read several baords and nothing seems to work. The error message in bold below pops up as soon as I try to open PowerBI Desktop. Once I close that window and try to open a data set, such as a saved excel spreadsheet, I get another error message "Failed to save modifications to the server. Error returned: 'The following system error occurred: The specified module could not be found." And then the below error message (same as the one when I first open POWERBI) again pops up. Message is below in bold. I am a student that is trying to learn POWERBI, and have access to desktop through my school. I just want to be able to laod data through excel and work with the desktop to learn it.
