Opening a browser window in PiP

Help Studio

I’m running a process in PiP which opens a web browser. When this is triggered the process fails and produces the following message.

“Job failed. Reason: The browser already runs in the main session. Please stop the browser or set another data dictionary and restart the automation in PiP.”

I understand the issue is that the main session has the web browser already open. I don’t want to force the user to close the browser before they start the process.

I have tried setting the User Data Folder Mode to Automatic and Custom and also the incognito settings for both Modern and Classic activities but no success.

Hello @craig.norton

Have you tried running it as New Desktop?
