Not updating the tables in Power Bi desktop

I have saved my source data excel files and Power Bi file in one drive. My sourece data excel file contains data in five rows and I manually updated the data in last two rows. Then I refreshed the data in Power Bi Desktop. Unfortunately I am missing now updated two rows in my table in Power Bi. It is showing me only first three rows. The following is the copy of the table in Power Bi Desktop which had five rows before I update the last two rows in source data excel file.

1. Make sure the source Excel file is saved and close out before you refresh the Power BI report that connects to the same file. 
2. Check the connections in Power BI to make sure it is mapping to the same file. 

 

If the above two don't work. Try creating a new query (connection) to that same worksheet in your excel file that is now updated to contain 5 rows and that version is saved safely in One Drive. 

Hope this helps.
