Hello, I need assist with Window Security Warning Message coming up. I need the UiPath activity to click “Run” button, however, it does not click on the “Run” button. Unfortunately, I cannot control the security settings so this message will appear each time most likely and if it appears I need to hit “Run” button. If it does not appear then I would like to continue with the next activity. Is there anyway to do this? I read bunch of community posts but unable to still fix this issue.
As soon as the BAT file is launched, the windows security message comes up (UiPath Studio opens until then) and then it gets stuck where it does not click on the “Run” button (Stays on the security window). So what do you suggest in this case.
Also, are you suggesting something like this? Where my BAT file is the first thing it runs and at same time if that message comes up then it would click through it? I tried this but this doesnt work.
I updated the pop-up as window for both Use Application and Click and that definitely helped at least bring the “Open File - Security Warning” dialogue in the forefront as that was also another issue too where it was running on the back
The Open File - Security Warning dialogue box does not click on the “Run” button as you can see. I looked at the log and it shows as if it clicked on it but it did not. Basically, what happens is my BAT file script executes, then this Open File - Security Warning box appears and it just stays on this screen and it does not click on the “Run” button and this window just stays open as opposed to it clicking on the “Run” button which would run the BAT file
Also, if i am not following your recommendation correctly, could you please share screenshot like I did as I am new to UiPath so would be easier to learn and see what you mean exactly.
Could you please clarify where you would like me to try the hardware events? In the Check App State when it clicks on the “Run” button?
So, this is just one of the workflow in my activity, i have many other stuff that needs to occur if this is successful. But my other workflows depends on the BAT file running successfully, which is why my BAT file is on left and other one on right.
also, can you clarify what you mean by giving condition in parallel please.
I tried your suggestion but it does not work :(. Also, what I am noticing is it is opening up another File Explorer window as well and does not click on the “Run” button. I also see that Open File - Security warning box does not always open in foreground
Any way to fix this, I really need this to work as this is really dependent on many of my other UI Projects. I also switched per your recommendation to move the Use Application activity on the left and my script BAT script on the right on the parallel activity. But please note my BAT script needs to start first and based on its execution my other workflows will work.
Furthermore, I am also getting Use Application Open File - Security Warning could not find the Ui Element corresponding to this sector error as well. I did update the Condition to True for Parallel activity. Also, I know in my previous post I had said it found the Open File - Security Warning, it is actually not finding it, I think i may had that open last time when i was executing. Bascially, the UiPath is not recognizing the Open File - Security Window that is opening up and therefore it is throwing error saying could not find the Ui element corresponding selector.
This is the script, it basically merges remit files and puts in proper format.

I figured out the issue and how to solve this error (Thank you so much Anil for all the feedback you have provided otherwise I would not have made this far :)). I used this forum (How to bring window to focus).
Run the bot in debug mode, pause when it opens the application, then use UiExplorer to find the element. After doing that, I found the following to be the selector information:
What I ended up doing is running the application and a click activity in parallel. The click has a DelayBefore of 200 (anything faster and it wouldn’t work properly) and I set the ClickType to CLICK_DOUBLE (Even though this article says double I did single). The double click is so it brings the window into focus and then clicks the button.
I am including the detailed steps below with screenshot as this took lot of time to figure this out so anyone new to UiPath can reference these detail steps and use it
My issue was when I was using the Windows File Explorer activity, I was launching the security window and then selecting the selector, the thing is when you run it through the UiPath Studio, the selector actually changes which is why it was not recognizing my window
Note - You need to update the selector in following places:
