Is XML in Power Query is broken on macOS
Hello, XML from Power Query seems to have broken after update (July 2nd 2026). I tried this on several Macs To recreate just create a new file. Power Query -> XML -> Choose any xml file For ...
Hi, since you can reproduce this on several Macs after the July 2 update, I would treat it as a likely Excel for Mac regression rather than a bad XML file. A good test would be to try another update channel or roll back one affected Mac if your org allows it. In the meantime, using Excel for Windows, Power Query Online, or another XML import path may be the most practical workaround until Microsoft confirms the bug.
The only test I could do was on an un-updated mac and it still worked. So I'll take your advice and research rolling back or third party tools.
Still hoping for a workaround though, it would save me hours
thanks
