Power BI File corrupted
I had been using a Power Bi file which says its corrupted. I really need this file to be restored. the error message says: "File is corrupted and can't be opened by power bi desktop". Any sugg...
Thank you for your reply, much appreciated. i tried most of the steps however could not get this worked (some of them are restricted by IT as i can't see file history and previous version. Finally IT team managed to restore the previous version from backup yesterday and that file is working. I still have no idea how did it get corrupted as it happened first time.
I managed to change it into pbit however it opened a new file of power bi in desktop but gave me the same error.
Hi Heenasaini, If you're using the latest Power BI Desktop, try opening the file in an older or newer version. Sometimes version mismatches cause corruption issues.
Thanks,
