Problem with Downloads panel in Microsoft Edge - Save as

Hi,

So this is a recurring issue. The robot can’t recognize the “Save As” button resulting in an invalid selector. The easiest way for me to solve this when debugging is to create new “Click activity” and select the download window:

The only selector that is valid from the start is the highlighted area “Target” is showing, As soon as I select that area(highlighted by “Target”) the Anchor selection is able to select “Save as”. When I have done this the selector is valid again and it works again until the next time this happens.

So what could the problem be here. Is it a bug within the plugin or some other communication issue? I guess the Downloads panel is a seperate overlay or something. I get a feeling it is not properly “activated” until I “force” it to like mentioned above.

Hi,

For now, can you try to upgrade UiAutomation.Activities package to the latest 23.4.10 etc.?

this is a prevailing issue that is being observed

two ways for now

  1. identify the pop up and use shortcut keys to click
  2. do not use ask before download check box from settings and let it download in default location and then use copy files to copy the file to required location

cheers

Did not 23.4.7 solve that issue stated in the topic?

Okay, so UiPath is aware of this?

Where is the official topic about this?

Can you try the latest 23.4.10 because there is another problem in edge117?

Regards,
