When I use the “Use Application” activity to open a website in Edge, UiPath is unable to interact with the site. I’ve tested it using a simple workflow that makes a search on google and get a timeout when the robot tries to type into the search field on google.com . This only happens if UiPath opens …

After playing around with Edge’s settings, disabling “startup boost” fixed the problem. Startup boost UiPath can now interact with the browser as expected!
