Just started to get this error this week. "External component has thrown an exception."
Updated to Feb 2020 release but the problem persists.
The PBI Desktop file is connected to a small Access accdb file, pulling a single query. The db is only 492k in size.
The file has worked for a few months in this environment, until this week.
Evnironment is:
Remote VM Win 10 workstation with O365 32-bit, and PBI 32-bit.
The machine is at a client's site and beyond my control. Not much I can do by way of testing.
Any ideas appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.

HI @Rich_P ,
have you ever tried using the old desktop version again? Maybe it's the new version.
Best,
Kathrin
