Unable to read config file from shared path

Failed due to exception :Microsoft Excel cannot access the file ‘\***\Config.xlsx’. There are several possible reasons: • The file name or path does not exist. • The file is being used by another program. • The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook. Excel Application

  • Its running perfectly from studio and even running from UiPath robot (Agent tray), but failed with above error while running from orchestrator jobs.

Please suggest me one solution ?

Hi @nyusuf,
Is it process which relies on particular machine? Is it attended or unattended automation? The machine where process is starting have the access to the path? Is network path restricted to some users or open for everyone?
There are a lot of unknown things here. Please check every aspect and detail.
