Microsoft.Mashup.Evaluator.Interface.ErrorException: Access to the path denied
Hi, I import regularly the Excel files from local D Drive into Power BI Desktop. This had worked until few days before and now all my old Power BI Desktop files have connection problem in Query Edit...
I was now able to solve this problem. Turns out that the Firewall was considering the Microsoft.Mashup.Container.NetFX45.exe as a ransomware and shut it off. Hence everytime in Query Editor the data was refreshed or an excel was imported the error message popped up. My computer has Sophos End Point Agent. The firewall was then given a provisional rule for this exe file to access C drive and problem was solved.
thanks all for giving it a try.
Please note this problem is occuring only with excel files. Text files have no such issues till now. I use Office 365 Tools since a year and nothing is changed since then.
