Power BI Desktop Incompatibility with browser when trying to login to Salesforce

I am unable to sign onto Salesforce with Power BI Desktop since the browser dialog window that comes up looks to be the Internet Explorer, not a supprted browser for Salesforce Lightning support. I can no longer sign in with my account when trying to create new reports.

Our Salesforce administrators have advised me that Lightning no longer provides the option to allow IE, so we are now blocked from desktop login to the Salesforce Objects data source. 

 

We have a workaround pulling in the data via dataflow using a modern browser, but that is a challenge for many of our users.
