Hi ImkeF ,
I'm having the same problem as BorisTPL, but I'm using the "PBI-Cleaner-Gen2-V7.pbit" file on Power BI Desktop 2.110.1161.0 64-bit (October, 2022).

When I'm using PBI Cleaner on a small .PBIX file, it works fine. However, it's stuck on "Evaluating" when I use it on a larger .PBIX file (approx. 9 MBs, but it has around 150 measures).

I followed the procedure ("Use my current credentials", "Ignore Privacy Levels" twice, etc.), but I have to cancel the initial refresh after 2 hours.

Any ideas ?

Regards,
Yanick
