Unexpected error importing with Power Query

[jimranish]

I have Microsoft 365 and have been trying to use Get & Transform for the first time. I tried importing from web pages (including the same URL as in a tutorial video), a text file and another workbook, closing and reopening the workbook each time.

All give the same message right away: Unexpected error. Something went wrong. If the problem continues, please restart Excel.

Before reinstalling the Office try to clean cache in Data->GetData->Query Options. In addition, be sure only one file with Power Query is opened.

After that yes, try to repair Office and check Windows updates are installed properly (that could be an issue with .net framework which could cause such error).
