Saving Report Content dialog

I am getting this a lot today when saving a pbix file in desktop. It just sits on this dialog and I have to kill power bi in task manager and recover lost file. I have latest version of the desktop app and file is quite big at around 140Mb. 

 

Is it just me or is anyone else seeing this?

    Hi gooranga1,

     

    I think you should import the data into the power bi desktop. So to improve usability and performance, Please refer to the blog.

      Hi gooranga1,

       

      Does that make sense? If so, kindly mark my answer as a solution to close the case.

        Hi v-frfei-msft,

         

        No, sorry, it doesn't make sense.

         

        All our pbix files are imported data. This particular file is now the biggest at about 140Mb with a lot of data and a lot of pages with numerous bookmarks. I have been using power bi intensively for 2 years now and it had never crashed/hung on me in this way before.

         

        Maybe our files and complexity had not got to this point before and now it has I am seeing this behaviour.

         

        Thanks
