Hi,

I am currently doing the second assignment on the RPA Developer Advanced.

I came across this error: RemoteException wrapping UiPath.Core.SelectorNotFoundException: Could not communicate with the UiPath extension for browser ‘chrome.exe’. Please make sure the extension is installed and enabled.

Kindly need your help on this matter.

Hi @fazrinhafiz,

You must install the extension for Google Chrome:

Hi Gustavo,

Appreciated your reply.

I still have the same error after I removed and reinstalled the extension on my chrome.

Do you have any other solution regarding this issue?

Thank you in advanced.

Hi @fazrinhafiz,

Is the extension enabled?

If so, try restarting your UiPath Studio, Google Chrome or even your machine.

Hi Gustavo,

Appreciated your reply.

I am still facing the same error. I did what you recommended but I’m afraid it turned out the same.

Hi Fazrin,

When you click to indicate an element, are you able to indicate a specific field or does it indicate the whole Google Chorme website page as a single element?

Hi Gustavo,

Appreciate your reply.

Yes, I am able to indicate a specific field which is the OK button on the popup.

At the early attempt, I use click activity to indicate this specific field I mentioned earlier. After the error occured, I tried to change the click activity into ‘click image’ activity. It works well afterwards. With this change, I have solved the error.

Thank you Gustavo for your time and replies.

Regards.

Hi Fazrin,

I’m happy you solved your problem.

Just one more thing I would like to know…are you using the incognito mode?

Hi Gustavo,

Appreciate your reply.

No, I am not using incognito mode. I setup my chrome on dark mode.

Regards.

Hi Fazrin,

If you want, take a look at this document: Chrome Extension Troubleshooting

It might be useful for you.

I personally don’t like to use click image activity and I think most people don’t find it very reliable as well.

Also, I noticed that some people solved their problem with the Chrome extension by reinstalling Google Chrome and installing the extension again.
