Same is happening to me.  I'm on Version: 2.55.5010.641 64-bit (February, 2018)

 

I'm trying to get the path on our org heirarchy based on managers userids

 

relpath = PATH(UserMaster[EmpId],UserMaster[MgrId]).

 

When I try to add the formula to a new column, I get the error:

An unexpected exception occurred.

 

It's hard to tell why I'm getting the issue because the error doesn't open up into any details.

    Today I downloaded the April 2018 version of Desktop (FYI I've always been using 32 bit) and this error no longer occurs.  Only tried it once and it worked so 100% success thus far.

      I just downloaed the April 2018 update as well.  I deleted my column and recreated it and I'm still getting the unexpected exception.
