An error occurred while rendering the report

Hi, 

 

I get an error message once trying to open my report. Unexpected Error. An error occurred while rendering the report. 

 

Followed steps below, but it didnt help. Please advise. 

 

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

 

Thank you,

Laura
