I have just Downloaded the CE edition of UIpath and i am facing the same issue. Nither do i have an Icon on desktop to launch UIpath again nor can i find it in in the search menu. once i close the studio i will not be able to launch it again.
Some advise/help here will be highly appreciated!!! else i will have to install it again.
I am new to uipath. I am facing the same issue. Every time I have to run the uipath setup and install it in order to work on it. Someone please help me to know in case I am missing something or doing anything wrong. Thanks.
(1) press ‘window’ key and simultaneously press ‘R’ key.
(2) A small window of ‘Run’ appears of left bottom side.
(3) type ‘%appdata%’ and hit ‘enter’ .
(4) Now Go to folder Appdata >> Local >> UiPath
(5) In ‘UiPath’ folder, there is ‘UiPath Studio’. Create a shortcut of it on desktop.
(6) Now you are good to launch ‘UiPath Studio’ from desktop itself and there is no need to install every time when you want to use it.
I have faced the similar problem.
I have installed the UiPath. Haven’t found it in menu options of windows or in short cuts.
I have exactly followed the steps given by you and it works.
I tried it. I am using windows 7. i could not find appdata folder but found UiPath folder. but there is no UiPath Studio to create the shortcut.
Please help
On my Windows 7, I had one earlier version of UiPath but had not used it for almost 2.5 years. Today, I unistalled that and downloaded CE using a new email account of google. After installation, the UiPath Studio opens but there is no shortcut in the windows 7 Start menu. I can see UiPath to be there in the Control Panel. There is no folder for UiPath in C:\Users\ProfileName. Also, there is no AppData folder as well.
There is no UiPath folder in ProgramFiles (x86) or anywhere else.
What can be done to have a proper installation for this?
Quick remark - the Enterprise MSI installer installs Studio in the ProgramFiles folder. The community edition folder is different: %userprofile%\AppData\Local\UiPath
