PowerApps Visual Stuck on "How to get started"

Hello! 

 

I am using the PowerApps visual in PowerBI and in the past, when I add a field to the PowerApps Data, the PowerApps visual will reload to give me the option to Create New or Choose App. Now, when I add a field, nothing happens. The visual just stays on the "How to get started" page.

 

I've rebooted my machine. I've uninstalled and reinstalled PowerBI. Not sure what to do now. Has anyone encountered this before? Any solutions? 

 

Thanks!

I am not sure it will help, I have existing canvas, with fields, that stopped working this morning, without any changes.
