Known limitations in Builds 1598 and 1610

IQ Bot is not supported in Automation Anywhere Cloud and users cannot register any IQ Bot instance with the Cloud Control Room.
If a bot is deployed on a device, no other bots can be deployed on that device until the first bot has completed the deployed task.
When deploying a bot using Unattended Bot Runner on a virtual machine with Windows 10 desktop, users have to enable remote access to the device (Control Panel > System Properties > Allow Remote Access).
Deploying a bot with Bot Runner on a locked device will leave that device in an unlocked state.
A Bot Creator is not able to view devices as assigned by the Control Room administrator. With this release, changes to the basic role has removed the View and manage all devices permission so that unless this permission is expressly granted by the Control Room administrator, the Bot Creator will no longer be able to see other devices in the Control Room. Bot Creators can register their devices directly; however, they will not be able to see the other devices in the Control Room.
Unable to deploy bots from a private workspace using the wizard. Bot Creators can deploy bots from the editor.
If users have set up Active Directory for Control Room authentication, changing to SAML or Control Room Database is not supported.
Device pool administrators can delete a device pool after automation is scheduled and assigned to the pool.
Users without SMTP can still import bots and packages.
When users delete a bot from the Public workspace, the same bot is deleted from the Private workspace as well.
Elastic Search Disaster Recovery backup is not supported.
Using the Run Task action with the child task using triggers is not supported.
User cannot export a bot with dependencies if that user does not have access to any of the related dependencies.
Users cannot check out bots if they are linked through circular dependencies.
Minimizing the window for some Microsoft Active Accessibility apps, such as Notepad, Calculator, or Remote Desktop Applications, can cause the operation to fail.
UI Automation, such as Snagit Editor Window for example, will not work in the background unless expressly minimized.
UI Triggers are not generating events with Snagit Editor or Inflow app.
Applications such as calculator use different technologies on Windows 10 vs. Windows 2012 or other servers. In these cases, when a bot is created in one server configuration, the bot cannot be carried to another server. User triggers in these cases will not trigger bot deployment and there are no errors in the trigger listener or node manager logs.
UI Triggers that are configured with multiple triggers are taking as much as 25 seconds to complete.
UI Triggers with a single capture and a filter do not work with files larger than 2 MB.
Button events where a user is switched from one window to a new window of an application fail to deploy a bot when listening for UI Triggers.
For Automation Anywhere Elastic Search Service users, the C:\ProgramData\AutomationAnywhere folder has to be removed before installing A2019.
Users cannot enable SMTP with TLS for the On-Premises version of the Enterprise Control Room (On-Premises only).
User credentials are not editable (On-Premises only).
Even when a newly added device is registered correctly, the indication icon does not turn green.
Activity - In Progress table is not cleaning event records until the user performs a hard refresh (F5) of the browser.
Domains are not shown for the Device/Run as tab when creating a role. This option is also missing when running a bot.
Node manager is not able to establish a handshake SSL connection to the Control Room running on SSL certificate (On-Premises only).
Repository Management API is incomplete; there is only one URL in the Swagger file.
Device pools display completed automations, not scheduled automations.
If a user is not the device pool administrator, the devices are not correctly displayed when editing a device pool.
For an Unattended Bot Runner, with a device assigned and auto-login credentials set, and Run as self selected, the Run now option is disabled.
When a user is running a bot from the Run Wizard and the Bot agent requires an update, after the user has updated the agent from the pop-up box, the user cannot deploy the bot until the user navigates back to the previous page and returns to the workflow to run the wizard.
Folder triggers do not deploy bots when a folder change event occurs.
