PowerBI Desktop Crashes when I create a new relationship

Hi all,

 

I downloaded the December update today (some great ideas in here) and was looking forward to utilising the new features.

 

However, post-update whenever I tried to create a relationship my PBI desktop threw up a Command prompt and then crashed.

 

Any ideas why this may be or how to resolve?

 

Thanks,

    Hi Nayim,

     

    I can reproduce it. The workaround could be establishing relationship with Manage Relationships in the ribbon. I will update the news later.

  • I have the same problem, crashing when I try to create a relationship. Any idea when this could be fixed? Anything I can do to workaround?

    Hi All,

     

    This issue will be fixed in the January release 2018. The workaround could be establishing relationship with Manage Relationships in the ribbon.

  • Hi Dale,

     

    Thank you for looking into this, I will continue using the work around for now :)

  • Have exactly the same issue, lets hope they release a fix asap. 

     

    Problem is the workaround makes PowerBI crash as well :(
