Attempting to refresh my dataset on powerbi.com is giving following error:
| Processing Error: | An unexpected error occurred (file 'xmutiltm.cpp', line 332, function 'XMTMStorageFileHelper::CreateOrModifyStorageFile'). |
I cannot get a search engine to find a single hit on xmutiltm.cpp, nor XMTMStorageFileHelper. 😞
The dataset refreshes without issue on the Powerbi desktop. I have no leads to what the issue is. Anyone else encounter this error?

Is there a solution for this issue? Just updated power bi personal gateway and this error is now happening.
Hi @DF10569 if you are hitting this error still, you will need to submit a ticket at https://support.powerbi.com/. We will need to debug further to find out what the problem is. Thanks!
Hi,
Is there a solution to this without having to enter a support ticket?
I had that same problem yesterday. I redownloaded the gateway and the desktop version, refreshed the data, resaved the data, and it went away. Hope this helps you as well.

I can confirm that the above method worked for me as well. When in doubt, re-install.
