your filter function is wrong. you were looking at < min date and more than max date. you needed to look at between the 2 dates
Count Rows =
VAR maxDate =
MAX ( 'Date'[Date] )
VAR minDate =
MIN ('Date'[Date])
RETURN
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( Records ),
FILTER (
Records,
( Records[Start Date].[Date] >= minDate
&& Records[Fake End Date].[Date] <= maxDate )
)
)
