I started to get the same error today. 

What is the solution ?

 

I cleard cashe by File -> Options and Settings -> Options -> Data Load -> Clear cache.

I checked if folders are empty in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop\Cache

I removed temp saves in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop\TempSaves

I removed all temp files.

 

I uninstalled and installed Power-BI Desktop.

      Update.  The problem persists once query editor is reopened.  I've opened a ticket and will follow up on this thread.

        Support team was unable to identify the issue, so they escalated to the product team.  It's now been one week and I haven't heard back yet.  Unable to edit queries on any .pbix file at the moment unless I use another machine.
