Hi,

Try to include Kill Process to stop excel process at the start of workflow or before Read range activity, As workbook activities doesn’t support excel.exe run in background.

Hope this may help you.

The issue was that Microsoft Excel doesn’t operate in session 0 while the Orchestration process from UiPath run in session 0.
So, The solution I made is to divide the project into two parts, the first one will run in session 0 and handle the data through queue to the second part which run in session 1
