Power Automate Desktop, 2 minutes delay before the flow start

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by philippecand 37

Hello,

 I build a Power Automate flow, then I start the flow in debug or i start from the console, in both cases the flow says "running" but it will not start executing commands before exactly 2 minutes.
I cannot find a setting to have the execution starting immediately when I press "Start".
Any idea why I have this 2 minutes execution delay? Thanks

    This problem is fixed. I uninstalled Microsoft Edge browser that was OEM installed and reinstalled it using the standard installer. That solved the problem.
