If the Invoke Workflow File activity in UiPath shows an “Open File Timeout Error”, it may be due to:

  1. File Path Issues – Ensure the .xaml file exists and use an absolute path.
  2. File in Use – Another process might be locking the file; restart UiPath Studio.
  3. Large Workflow – Split the workflow or increase the TimeoutMS property.
  4. Corrupted Workflow – Try opening the file directly; restore or recreate if needed.
  5. Missing Dependencies – Check Manage Packages and install required dependencies.
  6. UiPath Issues – Restart UiPath Studio/Robot, update packages, and check logs.

If using Orchestrator, verify logs for additional details. Running UiPath Studio as Administrator may also help resolve permission-related issues. If the error persists, share the exact error message, UiPath version, and logs for further troubleshooting. :rocket:
