    Hi All,

     

    A fix has been deployed to address this issue. Could you follow steps below from this thread to see if it works now?:smileyhappy:

     

    1) Close all instances of Power BI Desktop

    2) Open file explorer and navigate to the folder <system drive>:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop\CEF\cache

    • replace <system drive> with your operating system hard disk partition
    • replace <user> with your user profile name, typically the alias you login to Windows with

    3) Delete all contents of this folder

    4) Restart Power BI Desktop

     

    Regards

Good Morning!


I also had this error when using the TEXT FILTER button of Marketplace, after changing the new feature (Updated ribbon) so this button stopped working where it started giving the title error!


Soon, I disabled the feature (Updated ribbon) and everything worked for me successfully !!! ðŸ¤”😊

I'm using Nov 2019 as well, and having the same issue with the Text Filter.

 

Unfortunately my updated ribbon was already disabled.

 

Have tried the clear cache option as well, using C:\Users\<username>\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop Store App\  to no avail.
