object capture often fails after multiple continuous runs because the application or browser state is not fully reset, the DOM or UI changes dynamically, or unstable object attributes are used. To avoid this, always close and kill the application/browser process between runs, use Wait for Object with retry logic, and re‑capture objects using stable attributes (avoid index or dynamic IDs). Recorder capture, ensure only one browser instance is running, and keep screen resolution/DPI consistent for desktop apps. These steps usually stabilize object capture across repeated executions

This issue can occur due to accumulated browser cache, cookies, or temporary files, especially when the bot runs continuously. After 2–4 successful runs, the browser state may become inconsistent, causing object‑capturing failures.

Best practice I follow:
Before each bot execution, ensure the machine is in a clean state — clear the browser cache, cookies, and temporary files. This helps maintain consistent element recognition. If possible, also try refreshing the page during long sequences to reset the DOM and stabilize object detection.
