Hi @houdaui,

Try below:

1. Please download the required language pack from below link:  
[GitHub - tesseract-ocr/tessdata at 3.04.00](https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata/tree/3.04.00)
2. Save the file in below path:  
C:\Program Files (x86)\UiPath Studio\tessdata  
or  
search for the tessdata folder in your system.
3. Restart Ui Path studio.

Thanks

@houdaui

may be you installed the tesseract 4.0 might it is giving conflict, search for \*.traineddata in your computer and when find the UiPath traineddata file just replace with the tesseract 4.0 traineddata file and try.

Thanks

@houdaui

Copy the tessdata to  
C:\Users…\AppData\Local\UiPath\tessdata\

and try once.

Thanks
