Try uninstalling and reinstalling the extension. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, could you share the error message you’re seeing

@V_O,

Ok, your antivirus could be blocking the installation. Try disabling the antivirus software on your machine.

@V_O,

Sometimes antivirus software don’t fully switch off. I know it’s time taking solution but, try uninstalling the antivirus software then try installing the extention.

Even this don’t work, try reinstalling the studio as well.

This is a genius solution.

It worked with a little tweak. I removed “/c” at the beginning and added “&” (see below) before it was successfully executed and the extension installed. Please not that you have to close all Chrome activities for proper installation. After that, go back to the UiPath studio and install the chrome extension again or not. But its a must if the error sign appears on the oinned chrome extenision.

& “C:\Program Files\UiPath\Studio\UiPath\SetupExtensions.exe” /Chrome
