It's not that it doesn't let me work, but it is really annoying that things like this happen with no reason.

I guess you import Excel Workbook Content into Power BI Desktop. Since your workbook contains a model already, it supposes to have a similar measure group folder which is displayed with a sigma symbol in Excel.

 

 

This folder will appear in a calculator icon in Power BI Desktop.

    Hi v-sihou-msft. Thanks for your reply.

     

    The original data source, the Excel document, has only a few columns with data. After imported that data, a table was created with those columns, all under a table icon. After working a lot with the data, adding calculated columns and measures, the original table icon changed by itlself to a measure icon.
