Power Automate Desktop Flow - Issue with UnAttended Mode - UI Elements and Mouse clicks not working correctly

(0) ShareShare

Case1: 

Unattended Mode - The desktop flow is not working properly in VM, its getting failed always for UI elements and Mouse clicks.

Specific examples,
- we have an action to select the top1 of the drop down search list using Mouse click (at a screen position). It gets failed always in Unattended mode

- login user/password values are not correctly entered at the right place. (we are using variables to have the userid and passowrd)

 

Microsoft documentation at below link has some suggestions but it did not work.

Case2:
Attended Mode - When the VM window is minimized the desktop flow is getting failed. It just show blank screen.

Please let me know the solutions for above two issues if you have any.

    Hi @rpaservice 

     

    If you are not able to locate the UI elements because of difference in screen resolution, then you could try using shortcut keys or tabs + enter key combination to press or click the UI elements. 

     

    If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.

     

    Thanks
