Hi
Make sure that the process include the activities that will login the VM session
—once after login use MAXIMIZE WINDOW ACTIVITY so that whatever avoid executed it will work only inside the VM and also will search for elements inside that window
—so with respect to type into activity enable simulate type property and try once

Hope this would help you

  • SimulateType - If selected, it simulates the type using the technology of the target application. This input method is the fastest of the three and works in the background. By default, this check box is not selected. If neither this nor the SendWindowMessages check boxes are selected, the default method performs the keystrokes using the hardware driver. The default method is the slowest, it cannot work in the background, but it is compatible with all desktop apps. If you select this property, it is recommended to check the state of the target UI element prior to execution. More details can be found on this page.
