Can't get started with my first Power Automate Desktop flow

(0) ShareShare

Hello,

 

I'm trying to follow the most basic tutorial to create my first Power Automate Desktop.

 

So, on step 3 of the tutorial, we have:

 

"When the Flow Designer opens, go to the Actions pane, open the Folders group, and drag and drop the Get special folder action to the workspace to add it to the flow."

Sure, but on my Power Automate Desktop, the actions pane does not contain a Folders group:

Am I missing something?

 

Can anyone please help getting started?

 

Thank you

    I've simply installed PAD again, and now this action is there.

    So, case solved (for now 😉
