Handling Unexpected Pop-ups in Power Automate Desktop

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

I am automating a website using Power Automate Desktop, but I am facing an issue where pop-ups appear at unexpected times, usually between 3 to 5 minutes after my flow starts running. These pop-ups disrupt my automation, causing it to fail.

I tried using the "If a pop-up dialog appears" option in the "Launch new Chrome" action, but it only seems to handle pop-ups that appear immediately after launching the browser, not delayed pop-ups.

How can I set up my flow to detect and close these pop-ups dynamically whenever they appear during execution?

I have the same question (1)
