Hi @Sunitha_Bist,

In order to open this file, you could try the following code. Once you have it opened, you may check if it’s opened by using the Image Exists or Element exists activities, it will rely on which computer graphics app it will open.

Hi acaciomelo

Hi @Sunitha_Bist ,

Actually UiPath indeed takes some time to check if the image really exists, that’s why it’s recommended to use the Element exists since it’s faster. However, you could try to change the TimeOut property, then the interactions inside the Do while activity are going be faster, please give it a try and tell us.
