topic I observed the issue in in Product Forum https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Show-object-in-MS-Excel-VBO/m-p/76272#M28796 I observed the issue in windows 10 and solve it by launching an excel via Utility - Environment.Start Process action and then attaching. Application Name should be your excel file path and name. Let me know if it works for you.

But, instead it blinks in the background. However it works on some machines correctly. What is to be done in this case?

It is not an activate window action. If for some reason you want to activate the window of a running excel instance (maybe for a demo), maybe create a windows object for excel that attaches to the window (which is showing rather than hidden) and uses the Activate Window action in a navigate stage.
