I was attempting to use python to process imported SQL Data. 

 

I have restarted my PC already. I uninstalled, repaired, and upgraded python to 3.8.0 from 3.7.2. I have switched between 32 bit and 64 bit python. Any one know what the actual issue is?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

This could not be caused by the power Bi desktop and python virtual environment. This could be caused by your Windows operating system. You can refer to this document.
