Power BI Desktop July 2016 bug
- 10 years agoHi all, we have released a QFE of the July update that addresses this problem. Please redownload the program and try again. Thanks!
I'm having a very similar problem. I downloaded the new version yesterday morning and was able to work most of the day then all of a sudden in the middle of the afternoon, it froze on me. Turns out it freezes when I go to Get Data or edit an existing query.

Which type of data source are your using? Import data or dorectly query? Please provide us the steps to reproduce this issue, so that we can make further analysis.

Thanks for the quick response Charlie. I cannot access SQL Server. Power BI freezes after I perform these two actions:
1. Get Data (this happens even on a brand new Power BI file)
i. Click Get Data
ii. Click on SQL Server
iii. App freezes
2. Edit Query (queries run against SQL Server)
i. Right click on an existing query and click Edit Query
ii. Click on the gear for the source under Query Properties
iii. App freezes
I've been able to do plenty of work with visuals and creating measures. Just creating or editing queries appears to be the issue.

I am having the same freezing issues when clicking into Get Data. When I click on recent sources and click the source I need, it doesn't load. I then try and create a new source and it freezes when I try to open the OData option.
