Hi,

managed to get PAD working again! Hope the below helps. I stopped all PA services so I could delete most of the Program Files (x86)\Power Automate Desktop folder. Below are the steps that worked for me.

Uninstall Power Automate Desktop
Close all browsers.
Go to Start > Services. Stop PA services (Microsoft Power Automate agent launcher service, Microsoft Power Automate service, Microsoft Power Automate update service)
Delete AppData (C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power Automate Desktop)
Delete all you can from PAD folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Power Automate Desktop). I deleted all except 12 files that were being used by Power Automate log shipper service which I could not stop.
Restart your PC
Download the newest PAD version (currently 2.27.177.22340) and install
