unable to sign into Power BI Desktop

when I try to sign into Power Bi Desktop, I enter my username and then password.  Then, in the top right corner, I see my name flash briefly where "sign in" was and then it reverts back to "sign in".  There is no error message and i am not signed in.  Has anyone seen this before?


Thanks!

Hi there, i have same issue.  Is there any resolution for this?

Expect what you inspect - look at your data

Can you please download the most recent Desktop release, see link here for more information. I believe this will fix the issue.
