Hi @Anelisa_Bolosha1

I think pop up blocker is disabling the chrome extension. Either disable the pop up blocker or tell your company admin to whitelist this extension.

Hope this helps :slight_smile:

  1. Browser Extension Issue:

    • Check if the UiPath extension is enabled in the browser.
    • Reinstall the extension if needed.
    • Use Attach Browser activity, and in Arguments, set BrowserType to “IE” or “Chrome” accordingly.

  2. Selector Issue (Type Into):

    • Refine the selector for the “Type Into” activity to target the specific input field.
    • Use UiExplorer to generate a more accurate selector if necessary.

Hello @Anelisa_Bolosha1

  1. Extension Installation:
  • Ensure the UiPath extension is installed and enabled in your browser. Reinstall it if necessary. Restart both UiPath Studio and your browser.
  1. Arguments for Application Browser:
  • Set the correct web application URL in the URL property of the “Open Browser” or “Attach Browser” activity.
  1. Type Into and Element Highlighting:
  • Use UiExplorer to inspect and adjust the selector for the “Type Into” activity. Ensure the selector is specific to the target input field.

Thanks & Cheers!!!

Hello,

  1. Please reinstall the extension.
  2. Check activity arguments i.e. correct browser is selected.
  3. You can try installing extension by modifying the UiPath setup file instead of installing it from studio.
  4. If you are using incognito, make sure allow in incognito is selected.

Cheers !

Is your browser managed by the organization that you work for if yes, then You can’t change this setting yourself, but your network administrator can set up or remove the pop-up blocker for you.
