Timeout Reached Error for Click Activity

Hello UiPath Community,

I’m having a “Timeout reached” error in my automation process. I don’t have any extra error details. Here’s what’s going on:

Issue: Timeout reached with no extra details.

What I’ve Tried:

  • Used both “SimulateClick” and “SendWindowMessages” — didn’t help.
  • Adjusted “LoginToConsole” and resolution settings in Orchestartor — still no luck.
  • Tried running the process on multiple bots — same issue.
  • Similar processes on these bots work fine.
  • The problem doesn’t occur in attended mode.
  • Screenshots show the elements are visible.
  • Used “Element Exists” before clicking, Element Exists shows the element as available — clicking still fails.
  • Set Focus before click, Set Focus works — clicking still fails.
  • The issue happens sporadically, not every time.
  • Adjusted “WaitForReady”, Increased timeout, added delays, and used “Retry Scope” — nothing worked.

Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks.

Hi @Jerry1

Based on the various threads I’ve read, it seems that this issue arises when the robot is not installed in service mode. Could you please review the thread below for more details?

Hi @pradeep931

We also suspected the same issue at first, but we found that the same problem is occurring across multiple bots, where several other processes are running without any issues.
