Hi,

Sure, when setting up UI automation on a Virtual Machine (VM) for unattended execution:

  1. Configure VM Settings: Ensure the VM allows unattended execution without locking sessions.
  2. Set Up Unattended Robot: Configure UiPath Robot as unattended to run without active user sessions.
  3. Manage Excel Access: Ensure the automation can access Excel files without manual intervention.
  4. Use Background Automation: Employ activities that work in the background without needing an active UI.
  5. Check RDP Settings: Ensure RDP settings don’t disconnect sessions due to inactivity.
  6. Handle Disconnections: Implement error handling for potential session disconnects.
  7. Logging and Monitoring: Set up logging to track progress and potential errors.

By considering these factors and configuring your environment accordingly, you can enable seamless UI automation on a VM even when the session is inactive or locked.

Ensure the UiPath Robot service is configured to run in user mode on the VM, allowing interactions with the desktop even when the session is not active.
