Hi there,

 

After a while I have a problem to "sign in" in Power BI desktop , probably to many attempts and my account is locked and I can't do anything....

If anyone can advise me?  how to unlock my account?  I already contact Microsoft but nothing back , yet.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi @mahe72

 

Please check the following:

1.which version do you use? is your account free or pro?

If your are a pro user, please ask the adminstrater to check if your account is limited.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-admin-portal

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-admin-licensing-organization

 

2. is your error message like this:

"e - mail address or password is not recognized"

If not, could you share me a screenshot of your error?

 

3.are you still able to log in to Power BI Service?

 

4.open power bi desktop, don't sign in, then go to "optiona and settings"->"options"->"data load", select "clear cache".

 

5. check firewall and proxy if firewall, proxy or internet prevent access to the PBI Desktop Application. 

 

 

Best Regards

Maggie

more certainly it is a matter of IT policy !!!

 

thanks
