Unattended flow changes the keyboard layout

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 50

Hello,

 

I just noticed that when using Unattended robot, the keyboard layout defaults to English whereas when using Attended the keyboard layout is the correct one. How to change this so that the Unattended run would also use the user default and not the English one? 

 

I could write some change shenanigans into the code but I think there must be a better way to do this. 

I have the same question (0)

    Looks like it changed in one of last updates as I run into the same issue lately, while previously unattended RPA was just using user's default keyboard layout. Shenanigans from server admin side does not work as flow runs with ENG keyboard anyway.

     

    Did anyone find the solution to this issue?

    I uses a shortcut ("Send keystrokes to a specific window") to change the keyboard layout to my favorite . You can config the shortcut in the windows language settings. 
    But after the last power automate update it do not work anymore. I got the following error: "There isn't an active application to send keystrokes to." I get the error message also when I select an active window (%browser%)

    Anyone any ideas?
