"Enter email address" pop-up

[Tomasz2023]

Hi everyone!

Login window keeps appearing in Power BI Desktop and interrupting my work. How can I disable it? I'm using Firefox.

@FBergamaschi 

Thank you in advance for your help.

Oh! This is strange. When i use a private log in this does not appear. My problem only shows with my corp account.

May be u can try sending an issue to MS. You can use the links provided by @v-hashadapu

Hi. I reinstalled Power BI but it didn't fix the problem - the window keeps popping up.

Hey @Tomasz2023 

I suffered from same problem when I open PBID outside my company domain using a VPN.

I enabled my proxy, although normally when I login to my comnpany via VPN (out of domain) I have to switch proxy off.

By switching on the proxy, when I got the login pop up, I clicked ok to sign in, the next sign in window appeared and the sign in process continued and the problem disappeared.

Seems I had to have the proxy on!

See if this works with you.

Good luck.

Hi,

I work on a private computer at home and I don't connect to the company. I'm annoyed that Microsoft hasn't solved the pop-up problem yet.

Hi @Tomasz2023 , Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

I think the best course of action is to raise a Microsoft Support ticket, as this would need to be resolved on their end.

Hello @v-hashadapu ,

I haven't written anything here yet because I haven't tested my Power BI Desktop yet (I've had other things to do). So far, I've reinstalled Power BI Desktop (without uninstalling the previous PBID). If the pop-up problem persists, I plan to uninstall PBID and then reinstall it. I'll definitely let you know if the pop-up problem disappears (I'll try to do it by the end of the week).

Hi @Tomasz2023 , thanks for the update. Please do share the results.

Hi @Tomasz2023 , Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.

There is no known documented way to disable this prompt permanently. Disabling cloud save (OneDrive/SharePoint) no longer suppresses it. Firefox may interfere with login persistence due to token caching issues, so using Edge and signing in once is the only stable workaround for end users.

[Tomasz2023]

I logged into Edge:

but unfortunately the window still pops up:

Hi @Tomasz2023 , Please try re - installing the Power BI desktop and make sure it is the latest version. Also, I suggest clearing the browser cache.

Thank you.

I've read that this seems to be an issue if Save to OneDrive or SharePoint is enabled so you might want to disable that. 

[Tomasz2023]

This saving to OneDrive and SharePoint is disabled at all times.

[FBergamaschi]

This is usually a temporary issue, so please close and reopen PBI Desktop and it should disappear

Best

Thank you. Unfortunately, I've been having this problem for several days now. I open Power BI Desktop every day and the problem persists.
