Background Automation on a Java App

Help
1

I am a UIPath beginner and I am wondering how to ‘simulate click’ on java swing buttons in a java app. When I try to simulate a click event I get the following exception from UIPath; complaining that it cannot find the selector. However if I remove the ‘simulate click’ option in the click event it works just fine.

Can anyone please explain why this happens and a suitable work around?

Hi
Welcome to uipath community
Kindly check whether JAVA extension is installed to access the elements of Java application as a individual element
