Hey!

Will suggest you to kill the Internet Explorer before starting the process…

If 2 windows appear at a time the selectors will validate in both the windows…

There will be a confusion to robots which window to interact…

Use Kill process beginning of the process

Mention Internet Explorer as a process

You need to handle the second window as well.
you can use “Attach Window” activity to handle the second window and do the further necessary steps of the second window.

Hey!

Use Navigate to instead of using the open browser…

Pass the Second window URL…
