Power BI Desktop issues starting March 2025 release when running under Parallel's Desktop

Please be aware that I have identified a bug or compability issue with Power BI Desktop (versions starting with March 2025 and after) that present as very odd behavior when run under the latest version Parallel's Desktop Pro Edition v20.3.0 (55895) virtual machine (Windows 11 Pro v24H2, build 26100.3915, 16 GB RAM) on a MacBook Pro (M4 Pro Apple Silicon chip).

 

I have created a simplified test PBIX file with one static date table that displays a broken visual in the newer PBI versions when one uses the Advanced Filter option under the filter pane.  If one replaces the Advanced filter with a Basic filter option to filter the same visual, the visual displays fine.  When one clicks the See details from the broken visual they get the following dialog.

This buggy behavior is not present in the February 2025 released version of the PBI app (run under Parallels Desktop virtual machine) or in more recent versions that are run on a physical PC.

Know that I did replicate this post in the Ideas/Issues area as you specified.  I had previously tried to submit a Support ticket, but it required my Premium support ID to complete the submission.  Therefore, I had to get the word out through alternative back channels.

Please advise if someone has a location that I can upload the PBIX file (created in April version of PBI) showing the bug.  Alternatively, I can send it through email as it is only 83KB.
