desktop.ini file
- 6 years ago
Hello - no, I went back to a differing pbix file (with completely different data sources, but still excel) and it worked fine. That indicates it's not a computer/compatibility issue?
As I have researched, the desktop.ini file is a windows (hidden file) within each folder. I have no idea, why this problem just popped up. But, I have gone thru and within all import related queries, filtered out this file name, and all is well....
thanks for your suggestions!
