Hi,

I'm getting an error whenever I'm asked to make a connection between the flow and the machine. Currently working on module "https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/integrate-flow-outlook/" but stuck because an error appears (please see below screenshot).

more information:

  • currently on Mac but I have purchased Parallels Desktop, and I'm using Windows from there.
  • downloaded Power Automate machine runtime app, registered my machine to the same environment.  
  • tried to clear cache and restart windows.
  • tried to login with username and password instead [opening cmd and typing "whoami" to retrieve my domain\username. The password I used is the password use to login to my mac 

Hope someone can give me some advice. Thanks!!
