The connection between the console and the designer was not established

Posted on by 21

Hello, I have been with this problem for a few days: The connection between the console and the designer was not established. Restart Power Automate Desktop and try again when editing a flow, I have come to the conclusion that I am not editing it with the administrator user, but the execution does not work either. Is this so or is there some other problem? All the best

    I have the same problem. Just updated OS, but it didn't help.

    Good morning, in my case after a long time and with the help even of Microsoft we found the problem. The problem was caused by a third tool that in my case, not needing it, I already uninstalled it. To find out what was causing the error, they sent me the following instructions:

     

    Request you to follow the steps below and share with us the results:
    - Download the Sysinternals Suite ( https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/sysinternals-suite )
    - Extract the zip to a folder
    - Run a CMD as administrator
    - Navigate to the folder Sysinternals that has been extracted
    - Run the following command: handle net.pipe

    Running this command would display a list of processes that use named pipes and the address they listen to,
    Example:
    PAD.BrowserNativeMessageHost.exe pid: 21064 type: Section 464: \Sessions\1\BaseNamedObjects\net.pipe:EbmV0LnBpcGU6Ly8rL0JST1dTRVJOQVRJVkVIT1NULzE2NjIwLzEv
    Microsoft.Management.Services.IntuneWindowsAgent.exe pid: 26708 type: Section 6AC: \BaseNamedObjects\net.pipe:EbmV0LnBpcGU6Ly8rL0lOVFVORU1BTkFHRU1FTlRFWFRFTlNJT04vU1RBVFVTU0VSVklDRS8=
    PipesTest.Server.exe pid: 6540 type: Section 3AC: \BaseNamedObjects\net.pipe:EbmV0LnBpcGU6Ly8rLw==
    Kindly identify whether the list of processes contain the following process displaying the string - EbmV0LnBpcGU6Ly8rLw==. If you find this string in the result, please let us know.

    In my case i found one process with the string EbmV0LnBpcGU6Ly8rLw== and that process was the cause that i can't eject Power Automate Desktop correctly.

    Sorry for not having answered the question before, but the correct solution by Microsoft also took a long time.
    Regards,

    Good morning, I am trying to answer you with the solution but my messages are being marked as spam and I do not understand it. I have requested an abuse report to try to fix it.

    Hi Javier,

    I found this string and service which caused this problem. It is the service which is related with the application I was using. There is no need to uninstall it. I've just stopped this service, tried to run a flow, and it worked. 

    Thanks a lot!

    I'm having the same issue.  In your case, what was the name of the service that was causing the issue?

    @tschubach ,

     

    Do this what Javier suggested earlier, and you will find name of the service next to the string EbmV0LnBpcGU6Ly8rLw==. You can uninstall that service, or just stop it.

     

    Example from Javier:

    PAD.BrowserNativeMessageHost.exe pid: 21064 type: Section 464: \Sessions\1\BaseNamedObjects\net.pipe:EbmV0LnBpcGU6Ly8rL0JST1dTRVJOQVRJVkVIT1NULzE2NjIwLzEv
    Microsoft.Management.Services.IntuneWindowsAgent.exe pid: 26708 type: Section 6AC: \BaseNamedObjects\net.pipe:EbmV0LnBpcGU6Ly8rL0lOVFVORU1BTkFHRU1FTlRFWFRFTlNJT04vU1RBVFVTU0VSVklDRS8=
    PipesTest.Server.exe pid: 6540 type: Section 3AC: \BaseNamedObjects\net.pipe:EbmV0LnBpcGU6Ly8rLw==
