open browser activity works in remote desktop if I run a process from uipath assistant, but it fails when I run the process from orchestrator in the remote desktop. Anything I am missing in the robot/user settings?
Not exactly a solution, but I also had this problems in some VMs as well.
As a workaround, I added the Open Browser Activity inside a Retry Scope Activity.
I investigated for a few days looking for a solution but no success.
Monitoring bot execution, seems that in some moments the browser took too long to open resulting in an exception.
Thanks for your response. However, I see this activity getting failed after several trials. So I am not sure if a retry scope would help!
but I will give it a try to see the execution time is the issue!
Hi @icehouselux ,
You mean that is not working when you close the remote desktop?
What is the exact error?
Did you check this link:
Or these:
- Update the Robot settings for resolution
Robot Settings - Use for type into/click that support background execution
Input Methods - Also check this article:
Executing Tasks in a Minimized RDP Window
I hope it helps.

Hi,
I attached the workflow that I used in this situation.
ChromeOpen.xaml (11.3 KB)
See if it helps you.
Hi @icehouselux
Its a Kill Process activity.

I’m using the latest version of UiPath packages, the activity may look different.
Hi @icehouselux ,
Just update the packages from dependencies and it will show the activity.
Did on my end…

@alexandretperez ignore my previous message. I only checked the catch part! missed the code you have in Try!
