Hello, I wanted to see if someone can help me, this is my scenario, I have a robot which, depending on certain rules, opens an excel, what I’m looking for is that in case the windows session is locked, it’s unlocked, I’ve searched do it but I can not find anything like doing it
When you run bot from orchestrator bot itself will unlock the machine you don’t need to do that explicitly.
Divyashreem, I am using Orchestrator to schedule my BOT which does some activity on UI. But it doesn’t work when the machine is locked. Any idea how to overcome?

I got same situation. My robot is trigger by Orchestrator. Sometimes normal, sometimes fail. If I login to robot server and wait the job trigger. I must be success. Any idea?
I also have the same problem, can anyone help? When windows locks it doesn’t unlock for anything. Is there any configuration in Orchestrator to modify?
I am having an issue with a bot running some scripts…since it doesn’t unlock the machine to run a job the scripts are failing because it doesn’t think the bot has access to a file location. I wonder if there is some activity that forces the bot to unlock first?
@Francisco_Benavides I’m not sure if you have found a fix for this yet, but I found an article talking about having the bots “Log into Console” if they don’t need to actually unlock Windows to work. I changed my bot’s setup so the “Login to Console” option was unchecked and it now actually unlocks the workstation when it works. I had it checked before and the option set to “NO” but they still logged in using the console method. Disabling it completely made it work for me.
