Posted on by ctrl_kudorje 173

I want to How disable New Designer in Power Automate at the environment level, is this possible? Everytime i open a flow in Production, Microsoft is opening the flow with the new designer. The new designer freezes up! and I am forced to wait until I give up and close the page. 

 

Microsoft has created such a buggy new designer. Large flows constantly get hung up on this issue and i just dont want to be in the new designer at all. Any help is welcome. Thank you!

    Hi @kudorje !

     

    How about trying this method as given below:

    As seen above is one URL of one flow of mine. Now notice at the end of the URL: v3=true.

     

    v3=true : means it is the new designer

    v3=false : means it is the old designer

     

    So just change v3=true to v3=false.

     

    Example:-

    Before:

    After:

    I hope this helps.

    Another option is to just add some dummy comment, as currently the New designer is not able open if a comment is present.
