Desktop flow not working on second machine

Posted on by 64

I built a flow on my windows home device and built it using the desktop recorder.  It runs perfectly.  But when I run it on my Windows Pro laptop, the flow does not work.  The connector is all good.

 

The error on the laptop is "Click failed (failed to get UI element)"

 

The first part of the flow was created manually and that is to open the Adobe application.  After that I did the recording process of the flow.  The opening of the application works but the recording part gets the UI element isn't found error.  

 

Will desktop flow recording not work on a second machine?

    Depends on a number of things.

     

    Language, configuration of the specific application, resolution, etc.
