Unexpected Error - ModelManager is not running an expected transaction

I receive the above error message when trying to import a model built in Excel 2010.  I have the latest versions of power query and powerpivot.

 

The model has about 40 measures created with DAX formulas.

 

Prior to upgrading to this latest version of PBID, I successfully imported an earlier version of my model.  I am now unable to import that earlier version with this newest PBID.  For that matter, I'm not able to import any Excel 2010 model.

 

I have uninstalled and re-installed PBID and get the same error.

 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks!  Nick

Thanks, I'm looking.

 

When you said the latest version of Desktop, you mean the PBI Desktop December release right?
