Power BI Desktop WebView2 crash

Power BI is experiencing a problem with WebView2. We need your help to understand and fix this issue. If you are willing to help out, please contact us at pbidesktopwebview2issues@service.microsoft.com

Status: Delivered

Hi all ,

We have noticed your problem, this problem is mostly related to the environment, usually anti-virus and code integrity conflict, or webview2 should be upgraded, you can refer to this document below.

If the problem still exists, you need to collect logs for further troubleshooting.Since community support engineers don't have that access, I would suggest opening a Support Ticket. And a dedicated Microsoft engineer will come to solve the problem for you.

It would be great if you continue to share in this issue to help others with similar problems after you know the root cause or solution.

Just experienced the same error saying "there's a problem with webview2". Before that happened, it was trying to apply my query changes for a looong time.

I experienced this same issue while initiating a restart. Windows was trying to restart, said that it was having problems closing Power BI Desktop, clicked Cancel to manually close the apps. This is when Power BI wentwith a full black screen and gave the WebView2 error.

When is this going to get fixed?  I've uninstalled and installed a previous version of PowerBI and received the same results.

Happened to me when working on report with Live connection to PBI dataset and having simultaneously open multiple PBI files.

What I did? 

I was working on dataset doing some basic changes of metrics, used ALM toolkit to publish changes, switched to first file and then Refreshed the Live connected report and it freezed. 

Sometimes this happens when I have one report open for longer time and try to refresh or change dimension/metric

I was doing a teams presentation and I had both a PBIX file and a PowerPoint presentation I was swapping between. The first issue I noticed was the toolbar menu for W11 wasn't responding to mouse clicks. I then tried to sign out of the account by using the Windows key, I cancelled the sign-out when prompted that there were open apps. This returned me to my W11 screen, PowerPoint and Power BI were closed but normal control to the toolbar menu was restored.
