Power BI Desktop - Unable to use Get Data
The root cause turns out to have been the presence of an unrelated file in the root of my C drive. I renamed the file I had called "Program", did a repair on Power BI desktop just to be sure, and then everything is working fine. It took a little longer than I would have liked but the MS Power BI team is definitely looking at the feedback they receive through the "send a frown" process.

Same problem but no file by that name on C drive. Microsoft really needs to step up their QA efforts before releasing new versions. This app is terribly buggy and I've recently told my senior management to suspend their dependency on the Power BI dashboards because apparenly it is not ready for a production environment.
