Hello,
I am automating data retrieval from a website using Blue Prism 6.8 and Microsoft Edge.
The problem is that I keep getting random warnings in the control room. The process might handle 100 queue items and then on queue item 101 it freezes on a random input or button press. This is while doing actions that the process has successfully done already a 100 times.
I have installed the edge extension and I have put waits before button presses and I am running out of options what to do.
Any ideas?

Hi John,
May I ask what kind of warnings are you getting and what do you currently do to handle them?
Alternatively, if they occur at specific places (you might have to investigate a little to pick those up) can you try adding retry loops? Additionally try adding the GarbageCollector if your process is calling a lot of sub-processes or objects after every run to free up the cPU memory.
Let me know how you go.

Hi Harpreet,
Thank you for your reply. I have not heard of garbage collection in Blue Prism, I have assumed it is automatic. I will have to download the utility and see if that would help.
As for retry loops, all these sections are within retry loops, but I am not getting any exception, they just freeze and show "Warning" in control room. The process has been working with Internet Explorer, but I was forced to move to edge and ever since then I've been having problems.
