There is likely an action in your flow that uses a window handle. The actions that usually do that are Wait for window, If window, Close window and similar window-based actions. Open your flow and see if there are any of those actions with a missing handle. You should in fact see an error in the bottom area of the designer when you open it, and that might lead you to the action that has the error.
Thank you so much! I uninstalled and then reinstalled, and that fixed the issue. Perhaps it was a version issue.
Hello! Thank you for your willingness to help. I was able to fix it by uninstalling and reinstalling the app. I appreciate it 🙂
