The automation process opens the application in a different instance then when I manually click it

Within my automation process an application has to be opened. For the very first time this application is opened, it needs to be connected to an organization by entering a key. Afterwards, you never have to enter this key again and the application starts with its default interface.

My Problem: When I manually open the .exe of the app, I see the usual interface. When I use the exact same file path within my automation process, the application opens and requires me to enter a key. I have tried both, the use application/browser as well as the start process activity. It seems like the new instance is not opened within the same user environment? What else could be the reason? I have absolutely no clue as there is no error message or anything…

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the community

do you have multiple chrome profiles? if so it chooses the first or default

Also why not give the token always? Ideally it would not ask anyways…also you can use arguments in use application/browser to define and use
