How to stop refresh on PBI Desktop open

I have a desktop file that is using direct query.  When I open the file I would like it to not run the queries.

 

What is happening is the password changed on the username and it is locking the account when trying to run all the queries, because the desktop file is still using the old password.

Hi @pokdbz,

 

You can just cancel it when the data model is loading. Then you can update the credentials.

Right I know I can stop it while its trying to load.  But that will still lock the account.

 

I want to stop the query execution before it tries to run the queries, so I can enter the correct password.
