I am getting this error when I am trying to load the excel file. Please help me as I am totally a new Power BI user and I have already missed one lecture because of this issue.
Please help guys.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi, @MrRobot0018
The same problem occurred before, and they all resolve the issue by installing PowerBI with installer instead of Microsoft Store version.
For more details,please refer to these same threads:

From my local disk and one drive. Also, tried loading the data with the sample datasheet then also it is showing the same error. Don't know what to do.
Try to close the file and open a new file and get data from an excel source. Browse the file where that excel file is located and then connect. If you want to import from one drive then refer this link.
Share feedback directly with Fabric product managers, participate in targeted research studies and influence the Fabric roadmap.
