PBI Desktop - Refresh is not counting rows

I am connecting to SQL Analysis Services and when Refreshing tables rows count is stuck at the same number of rows and not displaying the progress, eventually, it completes the refresh but sometimes (due to the size) it times me out. 
How to display the progress so that I can see growing rows? If connecting to excel table or csv MB size is dynamically growing but when via refreshing Analysis Services it stuck at some random number (see below = 403 rows from ...)

Would be great to hear if anyone else is experiencing similar issue with the refresh from Analysis Services?

Hi @maxsuharevsky ,

Try Disable Parallel Data Loading:  Options and settings -> Settings -> Under Current File -> Data Load -> Parallel Loading, check the disable parallel loading option.

Maybe you have another solution as it is still not working for me the way it should work. Thanks

Hi Gao, I have checked that option and unfortunately still when refreshing the table the row count is stuck at randon number 😞

Please see my settings below

Thanks and awaiting for more tips.
