When I'm trying to login to Power BI with Microsoft Power Shell ISE:

Login-PowerBI 

from the Package: MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt, I'm getting the following error:

Failed to get ADAL token: Unhandled Exception: System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: An error occurred while sending the request. ---> System.Net.WebException: The r emote name could not be resolved: 'localhost.fiddler' at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndGetResponse...

I had a similar problem with Visual Studio NuGet service.

When PowerShell tries to log in to Power BI account (when executing command Login-PowerBI), it executes AzureADWindowsAuthenticator.exe, which looks for the configuration under:
MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt.Profileversion of power bi profilelibnetstandardWindowsAuthenticator directory.

The configuration file is called AzureADWindowsAuthenticator.exe.config.

To solve the problem edit the configuration file as Administrator and add the following under <configuration> section:

<system.net> <defaultProxy enabled="true" useDefaultCredentials="true"> <proxy usesystemdefault="true" bypassonlocal="true" /> </defaultProxy> <settings> <ipv6 enabled="true"/> </settings> </system.net> 

The final result should be like this:
