Issue Desktop version (store) - Restore saved database error

Hi to all,

 

Just got the February 2020 version (Microsoft Store app) and got the error Unable to open document - We weren't able to restore the saved database to the model.

 

Been looking around the community and options go from unninstalling and then reinstalling, did that but still same issue.

 

Tried to install the February version standalone however the version available online for download is the December version (although says the upload was made in February 18th) everything works normally but it's not comparable.

 

Also read that for some previous versions were this happened there was a new install version that solved the issue.

 

Thanks for the attention.

Hi, Everyone.

 

Maybe someone has the problem I have: after I got Power BI Desktop February 2020 update (it was installed automatically through MS Store) an error message pops up and prevents me from changing any settings when I try to open any DQ report (credentials, connection settings and etc.). When I close this message, I get the new one in a second. It's just so annoying!

Same here, and cannot install previous version as administrator rights not available.

 

Please fix it asap.

 

Thanks

@Anonymous , it seems that even the file you create with this version, you cannot open them after closing. 😕

Hello @Microsoft Team, 

what are the usual SLAs for those critical issues? (not being able to open pbix files is beyond critical 🙂 )

 

Thanks in advance for the update.

Thanks, we have the same issue, all users that had the newer version have been blocked since yesterday's release. finally,  re-installed the December version and this fixed the problems caused by the latest release
