https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Opening-Using-applications-installed-in-the-user-space/m-p/49404#M4817 We have an application that's installed in the user space (C:\Users\\Application) and are having difficulties coming up with a method to allow multiple robots to open and access the Object. Since Blue Prism doesn't support windows variables (like %username%) in the application modeler, I attempted to create a BAT file that we could use to launch the application. Unfortunately, after launching through a BAT file, Blue Prism can no longer find the application once it launches. Has anyone found a good method to launch a user space application across multiple robots, without recreating the mapping multiple times?

Most applications can be attached to when launched (only a couple of mainframes that I know of will not allow it) - can you attach to the application by just using the window title?

Just before the Navigate use a Calc to dynamically construct the path, using Utility - Environment.Get User Name Tue, 19 Dec 2017 15:38:00 GMT https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Opening-Using-applications-installed-in-the-user-space/m-p/49407#M4820 John__Carter 2017-12-19T15:38:00Z https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Opening-Using-applications-installed-in-the-user-space/m-p/49408#M4821 Can you not use a Navigate to launch and supply the path as in input? Before the navigate use the Environment utility object and a Calc to dynamically construct the path using the current Windows user name.
