    I've downloaded and installed 2.54.4970.961

    It still logs me off. 

    And when it does, it triggers SQLDumper.exe and then crashes the whole program.

      Same here, even with the February update I installed yesterday.

    Seems the issue is back as I am running a batch program refreshing PowerBI Desktop every hour and after a while, PowerBI does a log out and ask me to register if not yet!? 
    Now, this prevents the refreshing to PowerBI Services based on my Professional account. Also I am running currently the December 2017 update.
    Does anybody has an idea how to keep PowerBI desktop signed in even after several times closing the app and open again?

    Thanks so much!

    I updated to the latest update (Version: 2.55.5010.641 64-bit (February 2018)), and I am still having this issue.  When the issue happens for me, the app becomes unresponsive for 15 or so seconds when I hit "Publish" to deploy the model, then it prompts me to log in, then after logging in a command prompt window comes up running "SQLDumper.exe", then PBI Desktop crashes.

     

    This is WICKED annoying, and is causing some real headaches for my team.
