New source in the folder - [Data Source Not Found]
Hey,
wondering if you already checked the obvious that is, please check if the new file is of the same data type, ideally xlsx.
But nevertheless, from the error message it seems that a pbix file is inside the folder, maybe it will help to store the pbix outside of the folder that contains the source files.
Please be aware, that Power BI scans the folder recursively, meaning either you store the pibx next or above the source files or you just use a filter inside the Power Query query to exclude the pbix file.
Hopefully this provides you with some ideas.
Regards,
Tom

I cut the file outside the folder where I have the data and it works!
