Hello @GRH1405
Can you please share the selector used in the Attach window activity?
Also as you mentioned earlier it was working and now it is not working. Any recent updates of label changes happened?

Thanks

This seems to be valid. But can you select that window again to get the latest selector for the attch window activity.

Also update all yhr uipath packages to the latest stable version.

Thanks

Have you considered running a quick check if the process is running?

You can use the Get Processes Activity to get a Dictionary of type Process to have all the processes running.

See attached an xaml with a check if your process exists. It returns a boolean for argument ProcessExists.
It is set up as a Library so you can Publish it within a project library and use it in your flows. (note that the default value is GoogleUpdate. Replace with your process name and leave it blank if you’re turning it into a Library item.)

Secondly, I would log into the unattended computer with the robot account and run your process from Assistant to see the behavior as it happens. It really sounds like the program is not launched.

ProcessExists.xaml (8.8 KB)

can you please run it in debug mode, step into method, and share the error here?
Also, enable highlight element.

Thanks
