Hi All,
Anyone can help on this? How to fix the issue?

Extensions in Chrome is enabled, buy always with the pops of reminder, and ui element is not able to use in the website.

Pops wording:

Cannot communicate with UiPath Platform

The native part of the extension is not configured correctly.
Re-install the extension from UiPath Studio.

Hello @Allen_Huang

You can try removing the uipath extension from chrome and chrome extension from studio.

Reinstall it again from studio and check how it works. Also you can do a restart of studio and chrome after the installation.

Thanks

Hi.

If it is important for something, I’m in the same situation, but I’ve noticed that the “ChromeNativeMessaging.exe” process is not running… may be because an antivirus (FortiClient) rule.

Can we start that process in another way, in order to UiPath communitate with Chrome?

Regards.

Actually I’m in the same situation the exe process is not running. What I’m doing now is to switch back to IE, the UI element is ok to use.

11

Well… Edge is in the same point: FortiClient/Antivirus Software (AVS) blocking the execution.
The AVS just detect a “cmd” call and blocks it; does not matter the browser type.

Hi, “more info”:

Talking with my system co-workers at the company, it seems this is a “kind of bug” from Fortinet.
It’s about an internal rule that blocks any attempt, from an extension, to launch/spawn other unmanaged processes, like “cmd.exe”.

Unfortunatelly, Fortinet does NOT have a solution for this issue, and it can NOT be customize in anyway, by the moment. The only “workaround” they suggest is to TURN OFF/DISABLE AntiExploit rules in FortiClient EMS.

If you do NOT disable EMS ruleset, you are in trouble! :joy:

Please check the Studio Version, it normally is 21 and the extension you are trying to install is 22.
Also check if you have another product from UiPath such as Task capture because task capture belongs to 22 release. Please get back to me so I can support you with this troubleshooting.

Hi!

No, thanks. It IS a problem from the antivirus; the server has a rule about “installed extensions” in Chrome or Edge (Chromium-based) browsers.
If there is ANY process launching a new shell, the antivirus handles it like a “exploit” and blocks the process.

So, it’s nothing related with UiPath, merely.

I have disabled my antivirus and “exploit” restrictions to resolve an issue, but it persists. I am now seeking help and would appreciate any assistance from someone who has fixed a similar issue before. Thank you in advance for your help.

Despite my efforts, I am still encountering the following error message:

Cannot communicate with UiPath Platform
The native part of the extension is not configured correctly.
Re-install the extension from UiPath Studio.
