My excel power query used to have the ability to load PDF file as data source, but recently I found there is no such option in it, and the function Pdf.Talbes can not be recognized in the editor.

    Hi @立瀛 王

    This probably means either you rolled back to an earlier version (i.e. with a System Restore) or an Office update +/- didn't not complete. If it was me I would do a Complete uninstall of Office then Reinstall

    Hope this makes sense

    @立瀛 王
    Which version of Office are you using now?
    You may go to File > Account > Product Information, check the product name and version number.
    Please make sure you are using a Microsoft 365 subscription, and you could update it to the lastest version for a test.

    If it still does not work, I suggest you perform a repair for Office from Control Panel.
