Hi all,
How can I manage recent sources showing when I open desktop on my computer?
It is still showing old data source I want to delete forever but new one (actual one) is not showing....
Thanks for your help.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @lucie_raboch - While Power BI Desktop doesn’t currently offer a button to selectively manage the list from the UIOpen Power BI Desktop.
Go to Home>> Transform data>> Data source settings.
In the Data source settings window:
You'll see a list of all the data sources Power BI remembers.
Select the ones you want to remove and click Clear Permissions or Delete.
Hope this helps.
