Re: If file exist

I also recommend that you check the file for availability. Because file can be unavailable because it opened in another application. For example, the file still being written. The file exists, but unavailable right now. Look at the variable {IsFileFree(<Full_File_Name>)} or the action Wait for file ...

Re: If file exist

The variable checks for the file existence at the moment this variable is called. But the file may appear somewhat later (for example, after 0.5 seconds). So when you look at a folder in Windows Explorer, you see the file, but the variable returns FALSE If your file should appear and you want to wai...

How to access the network from system service.

The RoboTask service runs in a separate SYSTEM session. By default, the service does not have access to network resources in your local network.

Re: How to click a browser extension button?

Unfortunately there are no general guidelines for determining the optimum value of tolerance. You can only do this experimentally. We forcibly limited the tolerance from 2 to 20 (full range from 0 to 255) When the tolerance is less than 2, the action almost very often fails to find the required elem...

Re: GoTo Action Made Dynamic

I have always said that GoTo is potentially dangerous and even harmful. But users persuaded us to implement this functionality. GoTo jumps to the step number. That's all. It doesn't know what the target is. It simply finds specified position and transfers the task execution to that point. Like in ea...
