Measures disppear when re-open PowerBI Desktop report linked to multidimensional SSAS cube

[nsam101]

I created a new PowerBI Desktop report, connected to an existing multidimensional SSAS cube. I can see all the expected measures in the cube displayed on the right-hand panel. I save the report without adding any visualisations and exit. If the report is then opened, many of the measures have disappeared, in fact it's a totally different list with measure folders displayed that no longer exist in the cube.

I tried uninstalling PowerBI Desktop, rebooting and reinstalling, and the issue persists.

I presume that an old reference to the cube is being stored somewhere, but I have no way of knowing where or how to fix it.

Any ideas?

Thanks @amitchandak , i tried that but it didn't make any difference - it showed no cache being used, but I cleared it anyway to no avail.

When the report is opened it always displays an error:

@nsam101 , In options and settings, there is an option to clear the cache. Clear that and try again. See if that can help
