RDPExit
LGI RPA requires a logged in and active desktop in order to run an automation. This is no different than you as a user, you need a logged in and active desktop to perform the job that LGI RPA is going to automate!
If accessing a machine using Remote Desktop, closing the remote desktop session manually does not leave the desktop active. You must use the RDP Exit utility to close the Remote Desktop session.
RDP Exit can be invoked from:
- Start -> LGI RPA Utilities-> RDPExit
- Status bar icon in either the IDE or Runtime
- You can also create a desktop shortcut to C:\Program Files (x86)\LGI_RPA\Lib\RDP_Exit.bat (there is an existing shortcut file to this .bat file in that directory which you can copy - DO NOT REMOVE / MOVE).
- You can call the RDP Exit utility in code using:
c.MachineSettings.RDPExit
