PowerBi Desktop Hanging on Refresh
Hi bhalicki ,
I looked it up in the issues forum and could see that it is a known issue.
You can track the issue here-
https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Issues/Bi-Crashes-on-launch-with-AS-Process-PID-XXXXXX-Has-exited-with/idc-p/4723412#M112035
Seems like Power BI crashes and the user had to kill the process to get it to shutdown.
You can Up-vote this issue to get more visibility and the team will look into it to resolve or you can raise a seperate ticket on the issues forum if your error is different.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for reaching out.
Hi bhalicki ,
I can understand your frustration with the June release.
Power BI uses Microsoft Edge WebView2 for rendering dialogs like authentication prompts. If there's a hiccup in WebView2 Power BI Desktop can hang, especially when it tries to authenticate to data sources like Azure, SharePoint, etc.
You can the fixes mentioned by maruthisp in the earlier comment, else stick to previous version if its stopping your work.
