Saving a pbix to OneDrive causes Power BI Desktop to consider this file as "auto-recovered"

[FireFighter1017]

Whenever I save a PBIX file to a OneDrive folder or a Sharepoint folder synched locally using OneDrive, Power BI Desktop then considers this file as "recovered" and bugs me with this a message telling me there are recovered files and do I wish to reopen them or delete them.

It inteferes with the DAX formula bar and visuals at the top of the reports and this is really annoying because I'm always afraid that i'm going to loose something important if I choose to answer "remove the files".

So I try to keep up and clean this "log" on a daily basis, but if I loose track, then I have to reopen each file and see if anything's missing.  And I have to do it one by one because Power BI opens them as "Untitled".  If I open more than one, there is no way for me to know which one's which.

Can you please fix it so that files saved to online storage don't appear in this list anymore?

Hi @FireFighter1017 ,

Please try turning off the following features in Power BI Desktop options & settings to see if it helps.

Of course it works!!! You asked me to disable the feature that is generating those message about recovered files.

I don't want to be disabled, I want it to do excactly what it is designed for: keep recovered files for when Power BI Desktop is closed unexpectedly.

So please fix it.
