Hi all,

This is my first hands-on on Ui Path Studio. I started implementing the same project which is available on RPA starter course. When I am using Text Scraping on Image.
It is throwing below error.
RemoteException wrapping System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.

Can someone please help on this.

Thanks

Hi
Welcome to uipath community
No worries
Kindly use Internet Explorer as a browser type
And try once with other methods of data fetching like COMPUTER VISION or SCREEN SCRAPPING method from design tab of studio

Or if still the issue persists
Kindly uninstall .net framework and reinstall it
Restart the machine and try once

Hope this would help you
Kindly try this and let know for any queries or clarification

@Dheeraj_S1

May I know what activity are you using to do that?

You can use OCR engines or Computer Vision activities to read text from images.

Hi
Welcome to uipath community

May I know how that application was launched and at which activity we are getting this error

Cheers @Sekhar_Babu

ui path tool is 64 bit and my application is 34 bit . may be the reason?

Or like that buddy
If the activity we want to use is not within any ATTACH WINDOW activity or if the selector is not valid or if the Simulate click property not enabled when using type into or click activity

We need to check for any reasons out of these

Fine
Did we try with START PROCESS. Where we can pass the filepath of that application exe file to the property FileName
