Use Application\Browser activity doesn't have the Indicate on screen option

Hi,

I have observed currently thet the activity Use Application\Browser doesn’t display the indicate on screen option when using the following combination of pacjages:

UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities - V - 25.10.32
UiPath.System.Activities - V - 25.10.5

Is something that I am missing or what. This is happening with a lot of combinations of versions like for example the combination

UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities - V - 25.10.19
UiPath.System.Activities - V - 25.10.5

Is showing the activity as not recognized by the studio

Please let me know what versions shoud we use in order to have the intended functionality

It seems that you had this bug from StudioX that was fixed in UiPath.UiAutomation.Activities.25.10.24.

v25.10.24

Release date: December 19, 2025

Bug fixes

After upgrading to UIAutomation v25.10.19 or higher, the Use Application/Browser activity in Studio X did not display the Indicate target on screen button as expected. This issue is now fixed.

Try these steps:

  1. Use Studio 2025.10.11 from https://download.uipath.com/versions/25.10.11/UiPathStudio.msi
  2. Create in UiPath Studio a Windows project with UiPath.UiAutomation.Activities.25.10.32

Does it help?

I use Studio Pro not X

I am having a Studio 2025.10.11 with Automation Developer license and I don’t have the same behavior internally.
Try the same version.
If that doesn’t help, raise a case with support.

Hi @CristianZachiteanu,

This behavior is usually related to package compatibility/version mismatch between:

UiPath.UIAutomation.ActivitiesUiPath.System.Activities

In newer Modern UIAutomation versions, the “Indicate on screen” option is sometimes hidden until:

  • the activity is placed correctly inside the Designer
  • UIAutomation dependencies finish loading
  • compatible package versions are installed

Also, some 25.10.x combinations had recognition issues in Studio.

Recommended actions:

  • Use matching stable package versions
UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities → 25.10.xUiPath.System.Activities → latest compatible 25.10.x
  • Remove and reinstall the UIAutomation package
  • Clear local package cache
  • Restart Studio after updating packages

You can also try:

  • creating a fresh project
  • installing only:
UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities

and let Studio auto-resolve dependencies

If the activity still appears unrecognized, it is likely a package regression/bug in that specific version combination, as mentioned by UiPath staff in similar threads.
