I can't start Power Query in Excel 365 after redownloading and installation. "Unable to start Power Query. Please restart Excel...." said the warning mark.

    Hi @一健 赵

    Are you running Microsoft 365 Apps on Windows System?

    If so, could you please go to File > Account > Product Information, check the version number and update channel?

    I suggest you update your Office to the newest one to have a check.

    Besides, you may try to run Excel in Safe Mode to rule out the effects of COM Add-ins.

    • Please hold on Ctrl key, click or double-click Excel icon, until it asks do you want to start it in safe mode, then please release Ctrl key and click "Yes".
    • Go to Data tab > Get & Transform Data group > From Table/Range.

    Then, please try to repair the .NET Framework via using this tool.
