2019.10.4 LTS Patch Release introduces Agent Desktop

Agent Desktop

As some of you may know, Agent Desktop has been a part of our Community releases since November 2019 (19.11 Preview Release - #23 by nerlichman), and we are now proud to introduce Agent Desktop as part of our latest LTS release.


Agent Desktop is designed to offer a tailored attended automation experience and on track to become the one-stop-shop of RPA for business users.

It provides all the functionality you’re already familiar with in a more intuitive manner, but also some extra features to make attended automation an even smoother ride, such as:

  • the Schedule widget makes it possible to set up a time or frequency at which an available process starts.
  • configurable keyboard shortcuts to pause/resume and stop a running process, or to start a particular process

You can easily access it through the UiPath Agent Desktop app from the Start Menu.
