PowerBI Desktop (August 2022) - proxy popup ?
Finally we were able to identify and correct this error, which does not appear systematically on all workstations.
The problem comes from a residual that remains from a previous installation and that conflicts with the new version of powerbi desktop.
The tool integrated in Power BI Desktop in charge of the upgrade does not take into account some files already present in the user profile. To correct this problem you need to do a clean installation, meaning delete the folder C:\Users\userid\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop
those are open elsewhere my colleagues won't be able to use the pbi desktop ... :
(on the 10 devices where it's deployed, 3 receive the popup each time we launch the pbidesktop)
The connect was tested with different users. The problem is link to the software itsef.
Is there a way to generate a log that catch what's powerbi desktop do from the moment it runs ?
