Power BI Report Builder is freezing when tried to run the after the report was designed

Hello There,

I started exploring paginated reports design over Power BI Report Designer; The tool worked well until the report is designed and saved, and further when attempted to run the designed-report to preview it, the tool is going to frozen-mode and not responding further with results. Below are the screenshots. Would anyone please me help understand the reason behind this problem.

Thank you for giving your valuable time.

@arunaramana , Can you check and RAM and CPU usages. If there is some other application using too much of that, close those. Browsers, Power bi desktop can consume a lot of that

Thanks Amit, Looks like your tip worked. when the tool was frozen during run-mode, I had mozilla, chrome, SSMS and windows folder running; couldn't troubleshoot it. However, later when I have relatively few applications running, the run-mode worked well!
