I have encountered the "Failed to save modifications to the server. Error returned: 'A circular dependency was detected'" error with a PBIX saved just two months ago and found several other posts with the same error. The workaround has been to obtain (through independent file-sharing websites) an older MSI of the Power BI Desktop installer to open the PBIX file.
Rather than having this contant issue (there are posts going back to 2016), could Power BI Desktop just open the files to allow real troubleshooting to occur?
Side note is that one such report was published to PowerBI.com and still operated without error online, but when a PBIX was downloaded, it displayed the error mentioned above.
