How to force the creation of auto-recovery files

[asbpowerbi]

Hello,

   I am using Power BI desktop reports within a Power Automate script. Intermitently, my Power BI desktop fails, and the next time it starts up, I am prompted to handle recovered file from the previous failure - this causes my Power Automate script to fail. I need to handle this situation in my Power Automate script. How do I fail or end Power BI so that it does do the recorvery files task? I have tried refreshing my dataset and then go into control pannel and ending the PowerBI task, but that does not seem to do it. Any suggestions for forcing the end of PowerBI desktop so that it does create the recovery files?

Cheers - and Happy New Year!

Peter
