Hello,

 

I just updated my PAD to version 2.33 and I got error: Failed to launch Chrome. Please check that it is properly installed on your computer.

 

I have  this version of extension: Microsoft Power Automate 2.34.0.17

    Launching the browser (especially Chrome) with the Launch New {Browser} action does not always work, because the extension sometimes loads too late and the flow assumes it failed. This example instead launches the Chrome app, passing in a default web page (in this case Google) as the parameter and then attaches to it. This works all the time without the inconsistencies of the Launch New Browser action:

     

    SET URL TO $'''{SomeURL}'''
    System.RunApplication.RunApplication ApplicationPath: $'''chrome''' CommandLineArguments: $'''www.google.com''' WorkingDirectory: '' WindowStyle: System.ProcessWindowStyle.Maximized ProcessId=> AppProcessId
    WAIT (UIAutomation.WaitForWindow.ToOpenByTitleClass Title: $'''Google*''' Class: $'''Chrome_WidgetWin_1''' FocusWindow: True) FOR 30
    WebAutomation.LaunchChrome.AttachToChromeByTitle TabTitle: $'''Google''' AttachTimeout: 5 BrowserInstance=> BrowserMain
    ON ERROR REPEAT 5 TIMES WAIT 3
    END
    WebAutomation.GoToWebPage.GoToWebPageCloseDialog BrowserInstance: BrowserMain Url: URL

     

    {SomeURL} should be replaced with the actual URL to navigate to or a variable that holds the URL.
