Try the follow workaround

 

Workaround:
Step 1: Create a window variable

Step 2: Add an action "Window : Set title" at the start of task bot and map the variable created at step1. Select window title as "Regular expression". 

Step 3: Add an action "Window: Minimize" and map the variable in step 2.

Hi @Pakpoom Poodsud ,

 

You can simply minimize the Window using the If→ Window Exist condition. Use that soon after the Bot kicks in.

Sadly this doesn’t work for me :’-(.
In the past, I used “windows + d” (simulate keys), that worked for a long time, but now, it doesn’t any more.

I tried this method (above), the bot recognizes that the window is there (if window ‘Bot running...’ exists, because I get a message if I place one in it).

I can also apply the “minimize”, but it doesn’t do it (not minimizing). So it remains on the screen :-(.

 

Very annoying, because there’s a download button behind this popup.
