    Windows Version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.867)

    I have an rtf file I wish to save to multiple locations. I have set up a new flow. Then I select Desktop recorder and start the recording. I am then able to save the rtf file. Now I need to go to a different location such as Desktop and select a folder located there on which to save the new rtf file. Then I select the file and "save as" it. This last action seems to cause an error in Power Automate Desktop and the last action will not be saved.

    I can successfully save and use all the above actions until the last one. In other words All works fine UNTIL I try to change the directory.

    :)

    • Click on Troubleshooting tab.
    • Click on view all option on the upper left corner.
    • Select the power options from the list.
