Hello, I'm having an odd issue with my PowerBI Desktop. When I try to use the export data option from certain table visualizations within my file, the save as explorer window doesn't pop up anymore and instead it brings up whatever other application window I previously had up before PowerBI. This problem seems to have started randomly. Restarting and even reinstalling the desktop application hasn't resolved the issue. Deleting the table and recreating it doesn't fix the issue. Other table visualizations in the same file don't have the issue.
Solved! Go to Solution.
This issue seems to have resolved itself with a recent update.

@istarstrider @matdub40 was complaining about this. I haven't been able to replicate it but Feb 2025 Desktop version has been stupid buggy. Perhaps you two can figure out what is going on, I'd love to be able to replicate it.
Have the exact same issue. Not too happy as it break a few of my internal workflows. Hopefully the March update will clean it up.
