I encountered a new Power BI file that was created automatically in our department’s SharePoint folder after my coworkers accessed the original Power BI file (which was also stored in the same SharePoint folder). Moreover, I encountered an issue when editing the relationships between tables and views in the Model view of the original file, but not in the automatically generated one. The issue involved the screen becoming fuzzy and unresponsive when I hovered my mouse over the workspace. I am wondering whether I can delete the original file and rename the automatically generated one.
0918_2026_DatabaseDiagram_Tables_Views.pbix (original file)
0918_2026_DatabaseDiagram_Tables_Views-L-003004711557.pbix (automatically generated)
Solved! Go to Solution.
You have this folder synchronized, and there were conflicting edits to the file from different locations and the sync service could not resolve the conflict so it created a copy instead.
Close all open Power BI files accessing this report
Delete ONLY the -L- file (safe to delete)
Keep original as master file
