have was working on a web page, with a standalone robot installer locally on a machine, the bot works correctly but somethimes in the night it gives me this error “Desktop has been disconnected while performing UI actions” and Im not working on a remote desktop, the robot works locally.

I do not have a screenshot bacause the robot is working at night I just have the log to see the error

Anyone knows what happened this, bacuase I see that is pretty common on remote desktop environments, but im not on remote desktop, the robot is installed locally on the machine
