Scheduled Flow Never Ends

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Daniel_Cahill 2

Hi

 

I have created a scheduled, unattended flow which seems to work perfectly. I know it completes because I can see the last file has been created while I am logged in as another used. But the flow never ends. 10 minutes after the last file has been created it still says "running" in the run history. I have also specifically added a "Stop Flow" element as the last step of the flow, and it still runs forever.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

    Never mind, I found the problem. 

     

    The last step is to open a php file in chrome, and I know that was working because it generates another file, but for some reason Power Automate was returning the error "Problem while executing action 'LaunchChromeNoWait'. Failed to assume control of Chrome (Internal error or communication failure)."
