I've recently run into a brick wall with refreshing data from Power Pivot where I get the following error upon trying to refresh pivot tables and charts that come from Power Pivot:

"We couldn't refresh the connection 'LinkedTable_TEA_tbl'. Here's the error message we got:

The following error occurred while opening the file '\\?\C:Users\[MyUserName]AppData\Local\Temp\{ADE0894B-60EE-4CA4-8A79-7C9A79A27AA2}VertiPaq_FE837589D11B4850B32E\A088DD6619BA4BC48FD6.0.db\TEA_tbl-cf060A30-1ef4-4427-8f1e-154e9772a42.57.dim.xml': The requeseted operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open. ."



Any ideas what this is and how best to fix it? I have 64-bit Office 2016 running on a 64-bit laptop w 8-gig RAM and 2.30 GHz processor running Windows 7 Enterprise. This error just began last week and is slowing my productivity to a near halt which is very frustrating. Power Pivot is extremely valuable to my job but this kind of error is disconcerting.
 

Excel Facts

Test for Multiple Conditions in IF?
Use AND(test, test, test, test) or OR(test, test, test, ...) as the logical_test argument of IF.
Turns out to have been an issue with Trend Micro so that disabling Trend Micro is a short-term solution until my IT department can implement a longer term fix.
