Currently, the tool "Save As..." opens the dialog box with the last saved folder.
e.g.: If you opened the file A and saved in a directory X, when you open the file B (saved on directory Y) and click on "Save As", the dialog box will open the directory X instead of Y.

Same goes for "Select Data Sources". If you choose a new directory, when you choose to "Save As" your file, it will direct you to the last Data Sources' directory.

With the more work we migrate to Power BI this is actually becoming quite a big problem rather than just hassle

This must be a duplicate request... I know I voted for this long long ago... please consolidate and fix. I fall victim to this quirk quite a bit.

RE: Save As in Right Folder

How can this only have 50 votes? We're loosing so much time on this: Either navigating to the correct folder or even worse: Searching for files who have mistakenly been stored in the wrong folder.
Please fix asap!!

RE: Save As in Right Folder

Totally agree. Why can’t PBI just work like every other Office application.
