User is not able to install ui path in their system

Issue Description

While installing UiPath Studio, the installer exits with the below error message:

"Could not remove all of the detected orphaned items. The installer will exit."

Resolution

  1. Manually Remove Scheduled Task:
    1. Press Win + R to open the Run dialog.
    2. Type taskschd.msc and press Enter to open the Windows Task Scheduler (or open from Windows search in the PC).
    3. In the Task Scheduler, navigate to the Task Scheduler Library on the left pane.
    4. Look for the “UipathRobotJS” task in the list of tasks. If you find it, right-click on it and select “Delete”.
    5. Delete any other UiPath scheduled tasks as well, if any.
  1. Clean Temporary Files: delete any temporary files related to UiPath that might be left in the %LocalAppData% and %ProgramData% directories.
  2. Install UiPath Studio again; it should get installed without any issues.

Starting the 24.10 version, the Studio MSI installer performs an additional cleanup step, removing files, settings, and scheduled tasks stored by previous failed installations.
