Automation in Remote Desktop with a minimized window

Hi all,

I’m trying to automate a process in a remote desktop.
The process involves clicks and I want to run the automation in a minimized window.

Is this possible?
I’ve checked this link https://robot.uipath.com/docs/executing-tasks-in-a-minimized-rdp-window but it doesn’t work anyway.
This works with a community edition license for studio?

Thanks

I tried that also and it doesn’t work on attended robot. The only solution I used is by just resizing the RDP window into a small square box, without minimizing it.

and for your information, you don’t have to worry about this much if you are planning to use unattended robots.

Hi @beantony!

That’s a good solution! Thank you for sharing this :slight_smile:
Let’s see if someone have different experiences and possible solutions

@guiggs

Community Edition won’t work when you minimized the screen or close the window.

If you want to work with them you have to use Enterprise Edition and if you take Unattended BOT license then you don’t have to worry about this. It will work without any issue.
