Hi HemanthPrakash,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Forum Community. And also Special thanks to GilbertQ for prompt and helpful responses.
After reviewing the details you provided, I have identified few workarounds that may help resolve the issue. Please follow these Points:
Disable column profiling in Power Query (Column quality, distribution, and profile).
Turn off background data preview under Options > Data Load.
Use Performance Analyzer to identify slow queries or visuals.
Clear Power BI cache/workspace folders from AppData.
Reinstall or update Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime.
Test the PBIX file on an earlier stable version like March 2025.
If the issue still continues, feel free to reply we're here to help you.
