Hi,

Could someone help me on how to close open applications before the robot execution?

I have tried using the Close application activity but it only work if the Application is open and it is obvious that it throws an error when no application is open, How to solve this?

Hi
we can use KILL PROCESS activity with process name property mentioned as “EXCEL” for excel application and one more KILL PROCESS activity with process name property mentioned as “AcroRd32” for pdf application
place these two kill process activity at the start so that those two applications will be closed
