Hi Chanleakna123,

 

Of course, you can click Refresh Now to manually refresh the dataset any time, it has nothing to do with schedule time.

    Hi Chanleakna123,

     

    1. What is your data source and where it is located (on-premise or cloud)?
    2. How long is it takes to refresh in Power BI Desktop?

    Regards,

      @zolo , my data source on one drive. I use power BI service on schedule refresh to refresh the data.
      Normally ,refresh took around 10-15mn.
      I rarely getting refresh on desktop. Mostly going to Power service. And when I click refresh now. It always doesn’t work until the schedule refresh by itself

        Hi Chanleakna123,

         

        When you click Refresh Now, is there any message prompts you "Preparing for refresh"? 

         

        You can go to the Refresh History to check if there is a record of manually refresh. The Type column should display as On demand.
