I am automating desktop application and when I minimize the remote machine window, UiPath execution stops. Is there any way to let UiPath execution continue on remote machine even when it is minimized?

ok, let me try this @AkshaySandhu. Thanks!
I tried it @AkshaySandhu by changing registry entry, the execution does not continue. My case is that I am accessing a remote desktop machine via my laptop and the remote machine has robot and execution is done on that machine itself.
As long as the remote machine is open at my laptop, UiPath runs fine however as soon as I minimize the window, it stops.
After you made the changes in registry make sure that you have restarted the your laptop. Registry changes take into effect only upon restart of Windows.
Yes I restarted the remote machine, let me try restarting my laptop as well and check. @AkshaySandhu
one more thing, you made changes in your laptop registry right…? You dont need make changes in remote desktop registry.
nope. Just make changes for desired key only. Keep rest of keys as is.
ohk, I had made changes on remote machine because that is where execution happens and it stops when that remote window is minimized.
How does my laptop registry entry play a role here? I have not made changes to laptop registry. I am triggering a jenkins job from my laptop which triggers remote run on that remote machine however that remote run works only when that machine window is not minimized.
I have made change to current user only as shown below, please let me know if it is not done correctly.
Looks fine to me. Just check if your laptop is 64 bit or 32 bit. For now, it seems you made changes as per 32bit system. If this is the case then you are good to go ahead.
This is mind blowing @AkshaySandhu , it worked. Thanks a ton!
