I have upgraded to Version: 1.9.7675.15620 (Build 15.0.1104.300), Released: January 8, 2021 and still have the same issue with reports not refreshing. So far, only reports originally created or edited with the preview feature enabled are affected. 

 

My only workaround has been to repeat hours of work re-creating reports or re-editing recovered AppData reports again with the preview feature disabled. Simply resaving the report or making new edits to the original report won't fix this if the report was ever saved with the preview feature on. It's basically a burned file at that point. 

 

I love PowerBI, but this  release has been an epic failure wasting too much of my time.

Hi,

I agree. The October version has left such an impact with the Power BI report server customers, that we have to think twice before accepting the next release. In regards to your issue, I have been doing the same thing. But for me, I copy paste the advanced editor query for each data source, make the connections and then copy paste the visuals. This has reduced quite some time on my hands from redoing everything from scratch. But then again, didn't expect to go through this trouble at all when I had updated to October version.

 

Thanks.
