Problems running AA After Open Program cmd

[kstoneman]

I am having problems with a task that opens a program and then runs coding. When the computer is unlocked, it runs properly.

My problems is when the computer is locked. I have set-up the auto-login feature to unlock the computer. After the computer has been unlocked, it opens the application properly and then stops. The application I am trying to run does have a login screen which I have programmed into my task coding.

Any ideas?

Hello Kevin,

If you are getting any error then please upload the screenshot of the error. Also it would be helpful if you could paste the text format of the task along with that.

We suggest you to insert ‘Wait for Window to Open’ command after ‘Open Program/File’ command, to wait for a particular window to open or close and then perform the next action. You can find this command under ‘Delay/Wait’ Commands Categories on left side of Task Editor. Please follow the steps to insert this command:

1. Double click on the 'Delay/Wait' command.
2. Select 'Wait For' option.
3. Select 'Wait For Window To Open' option and specify the window title.
4. Specify how long would you like Automation Anywhere to wait for the condition to be true i.e. for application window to open.
5. You can specify if you want to continue with the task or stop the task in case the application window did not open in your specified time.

Also, insert enough delay after every command/action in the task so that this delay can be adjusted in case of system running slow. You can find ‘Delay’ command under ‘Delay/Wait’ Commands Categories on left side of Task Editor. Double click on it and specify the number of seconds to delay.
