An item with the same key has already been added. Key: VisualBasicValue`1_1 after "Convert to Windows"

After converting to Windows, i am now unable to execute the sequence which was working before conversion. I have tried both Copy as well as convert, which resulted in the following error:-

15:29:52.8467 => [WARN] [UiPath.Studio] [1] GetCompilableWorkflows: allWfCount = 2, normalizedDistinctWfCount = 1

Hi,

If possible, can you share your workflow?

Sorry for the messy design, but here goes:-

Hi,

For now, can you try to just Run File (not Debug File)? And if exception occurs at somewhere, can you share screenshot? There might be something integrity issue in your xaml file.

Run File manages to get past the first few activities until met with this message:

I have tried converting my other projects as well and they all end with the same error. I am wondering if the Windows conversion is doing something that it shouldn’t.

Many thanks,

It somehow ends and zooms in “Expanded View” on this “Type Into” activity

Sure, here it is:

Hi,

This error is caused by double quote character except 0x22. In the above case, there are several expression which uses not " but ”, like the following, for example.

Split(TabData.rows(10)(1).ToString,”/”)(1).ToString.Trim = "RELATIVES"

Visual basic workflow compilation error

Hi, In windows legacy, it seems double quote is normalized and any double quote characer is accepted. However, at this time, in windows (.net6) ,in fact, only " (0x22) is accepted to express string literal. To make matter worse, it seems to occur only compiling. (Expression validator don’t raise an alert.) FYI, the following is sample for reproducing. The first Assign uses " 0x42 and second Assign uses “ and it fails in compiling.

I just fixed these expression as the following. However it’s not cause for the first exception. So can you try to run the following xaml again?
