Powerbi connexion protocole goes through (old) internet explorer, to which you have no more access since edge was pushed by microsoft. So, in order to solve this issue, on the "javascript required" screen follow one of the link at the bottom, which will open a internet explorer page. Then you just have to activate the ASP script.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

The issue should be related to your setting or browser. What is your default browser then? Like Chrome, we can enable the JavaScript as below.

 

  1. On your computer, open Chrome.
  2. At the top right, click More More and then Settings.
  3. At the bottom, click Advanced.
  4. Under "Privacy and security," click Content settings.
  5. Click JavaScript.
  6. Turn on Allowed (recommended).

Regards,

Frank

Dear Sir,

 

The default browser is chrome.. I have done all the settings but still getting this issue..

Even I have changed the default browser to Internet Explorer and allowed the JavaScript but in vain.
