Hi there,

Is there a roadmap to allow running desktop flows unattended or attended using Windows 10 Home (vs. Windows 10 Pro)?  I have more Windows 10 Home machines I'd like to use and deploy.  I'd love to learn if there is a trick for using Windows 10 Home for controlling the flow from cloud.  Thank you so much for your help.

     Tip

    If your device runs Windows 10 Home, you can use Power Automate Desktop to create your desktop flows and monitor them onPower Automate. You can't trigger desktop flows to run from the cloud on Windows 10 Home devices. Other types of desktop flows (Windows recorder V1 and Selenium IDE) are not supported.

    Hi there!

     

    Thanks for using Power Automate Desktop! For running attended and/or unattended flows, you will need a Dataverse as well as an AAD Account. You will also need RDP functionality (for the unattended part) which to my knowledge is not available in Win Home. 

     

    Thank you, 

    George

    Thank you for the quick reply.  OK, understood the RDP part.  What is ADD Account?  And I believe I am able to run the flow using different PC (Windows 10 Pro and Enterprise) without d Dataverse or I don't recall setting up any Dataverse.  I get the point that Windows 10 Home is not supported.  Thank you.
