How to deal with Windows Security Pop up ?

MarcoMatuttis1

I'm running a .bat file to open a file that is on a network drive and get the following windows security warning window.

I can spy the window individually and also have created an action that clicks or presses the button.

But my problem is that blue prism is stuck in the "Start M-Text-Robot1VM" action that I use to open that file. It does not jump to the next action unless i manually interfere and click that by myself.

Is there a way to solve this ?

Could you run the BAT via something that does not wait for a response, maybe Utility - Environment?

Thats what I do, I use:

Utility - Environment

Start Process Action

And run C:\Users\Robot1_VM-VS\Desktop\Robot1VM.lnk

You could try launching the process indirectly. When you start the process, launch cmd.exe with an argument of "/C C:\Users\Robot1_VM-VS\Desktop\Robot1VM.lnk". There may be a more elegant way to do this, but since Blue Prism would just be launching command prompt, and command prompt would be launching the link, it should prevent Blue Prism from getting held up by the Windows security prompt.
