Searching for Semantic Model in Excel Connection to Power BI Not Working
Hi cconnolly , Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.
Check for conflicting add-ins. Disable all non-essential add-ins and restart Excel. If the issue is resolved, re-enable add-ins one by one to identify the cause. Repair Microsoft Office (Control Panel -> Programs & Features -> Microsoft Office -> Change -> Repair) and restart your computer after the repair completes. Windows 11 can cause issues with UI elements, so adjust Display Scaling to 100% or 125%.
If none of these steps work, the best next step is to report the issue to Microsoft Support, as it may be a bug or a backend issue. Provide them with all the troubleshooting steps you've already taken to help them understand the issue better and provide a solution.
