UiPath extensions help you broaden your automation capabilities to web browsers, Java applications, Silverlight applications, and Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, as well as over RDP connections, and more.

In Studio, you can install or uninstall extensions from Home (Studio Backstage View) > Tools > UiPath Extensions. To install an extension from here, simply click on the one you need. A message box then informs you whether or not the extension is successfully installed.

You can install extensions from the Command Prompt using the SetupExtensions tool, located in the C:\Program Files\UiPath\Studio\UiPath folder for per-machine installations, or the %localappdata%\Programs\UiPath\Studio\UiPath folder for per-user installations. Please note that administrator rights are required to install extensions from the Command Prompt.
