Dose this solution work with Web script, Where we launch the browser and do some scraping OR download ? because I am trying to run web script which gives error in logs file as “Cannot communicate with the browser, please check the UiPath extension.”

It should indeed. I use this on daily basis wihtout any problem. The fact is that I still use IE browser.

Well. We use this approach with practicaly any app, including Notepad.
So the problem must be set-up.
