Automating applications running under a different Windows user

Description

Automating an application running under a different Windows user (than the one running Robot/Studio) fails by default.

Cause

The application running for the different user (<UserB>) is trying to load files from C:\Users\<UserA>\.nuget\packages\uipath, but it doesn't have access to that folder.

In this scenario:

  • <UserA> is the Windows user under which the Robot/Studio runs.
  • <UserB> is the different Windows user under which the target application runs.

Solution

If you're automating browsers, it is sufficient to grant <UserB> access to the NuGet folder, as explained below.
If you're automating other types of applications, you must grant <UserB> access to the NuGet folder and:
  • If you're using UiPath.UiAutomation.Activities older than v23.10, run the Robot/Studio as Admin.
  • If you're using UiPath.UiAutomation.Activities v23.10 or newer, no further action is required.
You need to grant Read & execute permissions to the different user (<UserB>) for the UiPath NuGet folder of the current user (<UserA>).

To do so, follow these steps:

  1. In Windows Explorer, go to C:\Users\<UserA>\.nuget\packages.
  2. Right-click on the uipath folder and choose to display the Properties window for this folder.
  3. Go to the Security tab.
  4. Add <UserB> and grant them Read & execute permissions.
  5. Click Apply and close the Properties window.

You can now automate applications running under a different Windows user.
