Missing OK/Save Button in Power BI Desktop Relationship Dialog (Windows 11)
On my Windows 11 laptop, the 'OK' or 'Create' button is missing in the 'New relationship' dialog in Power BI Desktop (version 2.152.1279.0 64-bit). This happens even with simple imported tables and after reinstalling Power BI Desktop. The issue does not occur on another Windows 10 laptop or for my colleague with the same version and Windows 11. Display scaling is set to 100%. Please advise. Thank you in advance!
This is a known UI rendering issue in Power BI Desktop with windows 11,
Possible Causes:
Root Cause (Most Likely).Power BI Desktop uses WebView2 + GPU acceleration for dialogs.
On some Windows 11 setups, this causes:
Dialogs to render incorrectly.
Buttons like OK / Create to appear off-screen or not render at all.
- Open the New relationship dialog.
- Press the Tab key on your keyboard roughly 8 to 10 times.
- Even if no outline appears, press Enter. This often triggers the invisible "OK" button
