@Anelisa_Bolosha1

check whether the application is present in the background or not  
2. re indicate the element and try to use strict selector

Hi @Anelisa_Bolosha1 ,  
Have you check web page load success or elements exist before type into?

Ok, before type into, let check page load success, element exist, delay before type into,  
or  
you can change type into by send hot key ctrl+v

@Nguyen_Van_Luong1 , I can’t find page load in activity panel , i’m using version 2020 but I have also filtered for modern option as well, or maybe is there a particular name for it?
