Missing Columns

Hello All.  I am new to Power BI and having a little trouble getting started.  I am trying to import 1,500 xml files from a folder stored locally but I am missing columns.

 

When I load the data, these cloumns get picked up (The first 2).

However, I need 27 columns picked up so I can run anaysis by the Location field

Any suggestions?  Thanks for the help.

@BDB,

Based on the above screenshots, you get nested table in the TaxReturn column. Please load the xml data in Query Editor, and expand  the TaxReturn column by clicking the highlighted button as shown in the following similar screenshot, then check if all the columns appear.
