    Hi, 

    Yes the two paths are intentional! 

    We've contacted our IT department, my colleague had to write some extra code in the path for some reason. The IT deparment has updated his version of PowerBI and that has solved the problem.

    Thanks for your reply!

I had to post to this solved question because the answer for me turned out to be SO simple (yet it annoyed me for weeks)! So for anyone else who came here looking for a solution: it turned that my old password that connects to the external server was saved under the data source settings.

 

To resolve it, I had to go to: File - Options and Setting - Data Source Settings - Edit Permissions - Credentials/Edit. And then select: Use my current credentials. (Or you could update your password, but then you have to do it again the next time.) That's it! 

 

Just in case anyone happens to have this same issue. I hope it helps!
