Unable to open process.xaml

Hi,
I have a couple of BOTs that I previously created and I’m finding that I’m unable to open the different workflows and the activities lose their symbols and now have some kind of rectangle; please see the following image for reference:

I have a Studio 2023.10.4 version; would this have to do with the windows/legacy conversion?

@Valdez_Daniela It might be activity package version issue. Can you please share the screenshot of your project dependencies.

It is issue of runtime package version. Install the full package and you should be good.

Refer my article regarding this for more insight.

Hi @Valdez_Daniela

Try to Fix by opening the project in a legacy‑compatible studio or convert properly: set project compatibility to windows, install matching packages (UiPath.system.activities, UiPath.uiautomation.activities etc.) at versions used by the bot, enable modern design experience only if activities support it, run repair dependencies, and clear cache if symbols stay broken.

If helpful, mark as solution. Happy automation with UiPath

Welcome to the community

please open projects panel/manager packages and check if you see runtime in the package name

if so install the same packages without runtime so that you get the full package and all activities are loaded properly

cheers

@Valdez_Daniela This issue with activities losing their icons and showing rectangles, along with being unable to open workflows, is typically caused by an activity package version mismatch or corruption. Since you’re on Studio 2023.10.4, try these steps: go to Manage Packages and update all your activity packages to their latest compatible versions. If that doesn’t help, clear the NuGet cache (delete contents of %userprofile%.nuget\packages and %appdata%\UiPath\Packages) and then reopen the project — Studio will re-download the packages. This is likely not related to the Windows/Legacy conversion unless your project was originally created in Legacy mode and the compatibility mode has been changed.

Thanks a lot! This was the solution, re installing the missing packages; any idea why they might have erased?
