power bi desktop crashes during relationships

Power BI Desktop seems to crash alot when I am creating relationships.  I researched found only one option and tried it and it still crashing.  Turned off Relationship options.

 

Any Ideas?

The Relationship Options are used to import/detect relationships when loading data so these are unrelated to the crash. And yes it does look very odd - does the application show you the Error/Frown Dialog before crash? If you havn't yet sent a Frown, please do so and give a quick description of the scenario (what's the particular action which causes this; does this occur only on the particular report/relationship; etc) If you don't get the Error/frown window before the crash you can use the Smile/Frown menu on the top of the Main window.

I had an issue where i switched to opening csv files as text files within query editor to solve a gateway issue. When i did this it broke some of my relationahips and gave me the "missing intermediate data" error .

Hi @kfschaefer,

 

   it seems strange to me. Which version do you have?
