Issue with 'Type Into' Activity in Unattended Mode on VM

Help Studio

Hi

The ‘Type Into’ activity, in both Classic and Modern designs, throws an error when the bot is executed in unattended mode on a VM. However, it works fine when run from Studio.

The image shows an error message indicating that a UI element could not be found for the selector in a workflow file, with a potential closest match provided. (Captioned by AI)

Any suggestions to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

@jai_kumar2,

Try changing the input method of the type into to Simulate

Hello @jai_kumar2

If you know that there is only one window open from the program, you could try and change your selector to this:

<wnd app='winproject.exe' cls='*'/>

Thanks for the reply @ashokkarale and @SorenB

I tried both methods, but they didn’t work. when I validate through Edit Selector, no errors appear. However, validating via UI Explorer shows an error during validation.

@jai_kumar2 can you check which Targeting methods you have activated and verify that this is the same as the selector(s) that you are editing?

Also check the settings of Window selector.

@jai_kumar2,

I feel the selector could be more stronger here. Try using UI explorer and build a selector which is working in studio as well.
