Hello,
I've tried to open a .pbix file inside an encrypted zip file and seems like that broke PowerBI installed in my computer.
So far I have reinstalled PowerBI many times, to the latest version, and remove files from:

Hello,
The problem was solved by deleting corrupt files from Custom Connector folders.
HI @acanepa
For time being if you have the file published on the PBI service, you can edit from there or create a new one if it is urgent.
Hope it resolves your issue? Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution! Appreciate your Kudos, Press the thumbs up button!! Linkedin Profile |
Hello,
The problem was solved by deleting corrupt files from Custom Connector folders.
Hello,
the power bi desktop is installed in VM. i'm working in Virtual machine AWS Appstream.
i have the same error ( acces denied ) when i want to get data from a connector like database bigquery.
it takes time ( hours ) to connect to my adresse google email, in order to get data from database bigquery.
it works well in power bi desktop on local , but in VM appstream i had the same error like you.
do you have any idea about this issue , and how to correct it ??
Thanks
@acanepa - You could check the Issues forum here:
https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues
And if it is not there, then you could post it.
If you have Pro account you could try to open a support ticket. If you have a Pro account it is free. Go to https://support.powerbi.com. Scroll down and click "CREATE SUPPORT TICKET".
Thanks @Greg_Deckler but there aren't any issues similar to my problem.
I will try to open a ticket but I'm not sure PowerBI team could help me today, because the errors don't allow to open PowerBI desktop at all.
