Uipath Executor window is minimized whenever I run the bot

I am using direct connection for terminal and doing terminal operations within scope. Now when I run the bot, the UiPath terminal executor is minimized by default and I am not able to see what all terminal activities are actually happening within it. I cant use Maximize application window because this is an UiPath executor robot window. When I manually click the terminal UiPath executor on taskbar, it will get maximized.

Hi @Yelugam_Sarvesh_Cognizant

Try to use “Activate” activity.

use the “Activate” activity before running terminal activities. This will make the window visible without maximizing it. or try with hotkey.

@prashant1603765 Hello, thanks for the feedback but the Activate command is use inside Open Application Scope. Here, I am not trying to open any Application whereas I am connecting through terminal and my Terminal Executor is getting minimized. Terminal executor window is like a UiPath Icon which appears in the taskbar which runs all the terminal activities in black screen.

No it isn’t. You can have it on its own and give it a selector.

However, what you’re describing shouldn’t happen. Do you have “show terminal” set to true in the connection string?

Actually, I am not able to give it a selector as the UiPath executor window comes only during runtime. Also, I have given show terminal as true, terminal model as 1 and terminal type as 6.
The terminal window does appear and it does all the terminal activity perfectly but the window is minimized during runtime.

Additional information: I am using Putty to connect to my mainframe application .

Open UI Explorer. Set a breakpoint after the terminal window opens. Debug. When it pauses, get the selector with UI Explorer. Then manually enter that selector into the Activate activity.

Do you mean you’re using a Putty terminal? You should use Direct Connection.
