Problem with Power Automate machine runtime

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

Good morning.
I have a problem with Power Automate Desktop. I have two virtual machines with the program installed, in which I have created several flows that run automatically from Power Automate Cloud Flows. The problem is that the machines are "synchronized", and, when I rename one of them from Power Automate machine runtime, soon the other virtual machine takes the same name. I have uninstalled the application and deleted all the folders inside "AppData\Local" before reinstalling, but the problem is not solved.
Can anyone help me?

    Have you tried deleting a virtual machine, and then re-making it with a new name and then adding it as a machine? (I'm assuming you're just renaming an active one instead).

    hmm... perhaps these machines share the same IP or hostname? (That would cause some network issues too)
