We can launch Internet Explorer from both object and process studio.</SPAN></P> <P><SPAN>However, when we try to run the process in the control room, the web-based Internet Explorer appears, but it's hiding after the screen which means does not pop up. I have to bring it up manually, so it can perform the tasks well, otherwise, it's terminated because of failure of spying elements and cannot perform tasks. I also have attached and "activate window" steps.</SPAN></P> <P><SPAN></SPAN></P> <P><SPAN>Can anyone explain what wrong with Internet Explorer and why it cannot be automatically pop up when running in the control room? And, how can I fix that problem when running in the control room?</SPAN></P> <P><BR /><BR />------------------------------<BR />Mia Mikela<BR />------------------------------</P> Thu, 25 Jan 2024 21:55:00 GMT https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Internet-Explorer-has-stopped-popping-up-when-running-at-control/m-p/74173#M26778 Lily.L 2024-01-25T21:55:00Z https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Internet-Explorer-has-stopped-popping-up-when-running-at-control/m-p/74174#M26779 <DIV><SPAN>Hello,</SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN>&nbsp;</SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN>Try using the "activate" action in the application before the actions you are using, this should solve the problem.</SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN>&nbsp;</SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN>Regards</SPAN></DIV><BR /><BR />------------------------------<BR />Leonardo Soares<BR />RPA Developer Tech Leader<BR />Bridge Consulting<BR />América/Brazil<BR />------------------------------<BR /> Fri, 26 Jan 2024 00:42:00 GMT https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Internet-Explorer-has-stopped-popping-up-when-running-at-control/m-p/74174#M26779 LeonardoSQueiroz 2024-01-26T00:42:00Z https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Internet-Explorer-has-stopped-popping-up-when-running-at-control/m-p/74175#M26780 <P>Hi Leonardo,</P> <P>I have used the <SPAN>attached action and "activate window" action before other steps, but it still has a problem.
