Hi. Brand new to PowerAutomate. The Recorder is not recording anything. Any idea how to fix this? I'm trying to record steps needed in another online software tool.
Hope you are clicking the Record button as it is easy to miss.
Yes, definitely clicking the record button. However, it does not record any actions.
Do you have the Power Automate browser extension installed and enabled for the browser you are using?
Yes - installed and enabled.
Perhaps some settings check here
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/using-browsers
Also make sure about the "Continue running background apps"
Have ensured the settings are correct. Still not recording anything. Also tried recording launching excel (even though I can use the Actions to do this) - recorder is not capturing anything.
Are you saying that the applications other than a browser (eg Excel) are also not getting recorded? Then there is a bigger problem than what we are just looking at the browser.
Yes, that's correct.
Which version of PAD are you on?
Downloaded the version only a couple of days ago - its version 2.19.139.22098
