PBI Server May 2020 not refreshing saved reports

So, the only workaround is to return to Jan 2020 version?
Is it safety just to install the older version?So one workaround is open your report in desktop, then go back to the portal and delete the file from there before you save. But that is not great for end users.
Otherwise you either have to wait for a fix or look at going back to Jan 2020. Although Ideally you should restore the ReportServer database from a backup as I'm not sure if the May release made any schema changes or not.
Realistically my guess is that it could be at least a week or two, maybe longer before an update is published. Even if they have a fix for this today Microsoft will need to do a full test run to make sure that the fix does not break anything else. The last thing they want to do is rush out a fix that breaks something else.
Resolver II'm seeing a similar issue, I can make a small change like a background colour, then save to teh server and the background colour is updated but the data is still showing an earlier version.
I am also getting a sign in dialog almost every time I click on anything in the desktop client. It was never necessary to be signed in to the service in previous versions.

This definitely looks like a bug. There was a similar issue in the Jan 2020 release where schedule refresh would sometimes load an old copy of the model under certain circumstances. I've raised this with some contacts at Microsoft to see if I can find out what's going on.
The issue with multiple signin prompts seems to be triggered by third party visuals. So at the moment the work arounds for that are that you can either roll back to the Jan 2020 desktop version, not use custom visuals, or sign-in.
I also noticed that RLS stopped working. Does anyone have a similar problem?
We have the issue, reports are not refreshing after uploading to PowerBI Report Server. In Modified column I can see that the version is new, but the data in the report is old. Sometimes it works fine, but most of the time the reports are not refreshing.
