Acerca de esta guía

Scope of the UiPath Robot 2026.10 admin guide, from planning and installing a self-managed robot to running every workload and troubleshooting it.

This guide is for administrators who run UiPath Robot 2026.10 on machines they manage: Windows workstations and servers, and Linux containers. It covers the Robot from the first planning decision to day-to-day operation.

The guide follows the order of the work:

Sección	Qué cubre
Primeros pasos	What the Robot is, the workloads it runs, how jobs reach it, and what a machine needs
Instalando	Choosing an install mode, prerequisites, and installing with the UiPath Platform Installer
Actualización	Moving from 2025.10, and keeping the Robot current through update channels
Connecting and licensing	Connecting the Robot to Orchestrator, and the licenses and units it consumes
Configurar	Configuration files, proxy, package feeds, signature verification, and credential providers
Running workloads	RPA processes and tests in Windows sessions, and agents, functions, and API workflows
Securing and governing	Robot policies, tracing and data controls, and integrations
Supervisión	Registros de robot
Solución de problemas	Fixes for common problems
Referencia	Command-line interface, environment variables, and log fields

What's new for administrators in 2026.10

• More than RPA. The Robot runs agents, functions, and API workflows next to RPA processes and test cases, through Unified Runtime.
• One installer. The UiPath Platform Installer replaces UiPathRobot.msi and UiPathStudio.msi.
• Update channels replace the Update Service. The Platform Installer keeps the Robot on its update channel and installs updates between jobs.
• One install path. Attended and unattended robots share the same installation and connection steps. Where they differ, the page says so.

For the full list of changes, refer to Upgrading from 2025.10 and the 2026.10 release notes.

For robots that UiPath hosts, or that run in your Automation Suite cluster, refer to the Cloud robots user guide and the Automation Suite robots guide.
