Group Policy conflict

Studio User Guide
Last updated Apr 2, 2025
Group Policy conflict
When installing the UiPath extension for Edge using Group Policy the ExtensionInstallForcelist is updated at the machine level.
This can cause a conflict if the ExtensionInstallForcelist is also defined at the user level.
Because the machine level has priority, the extensions set at the user/cloud level are uninstalled.
To confirm this, check at
edge://policy
if this warning is displayed under ExtensionInstallForcelist:
More than one source with conflicting values is present for this policy!
To solve this conflict, follow these steps:
- Install the UiPath extension for Edge using the
NativeHostOnly
installation method.This installation method enables communication between the extension and Studio/Robot.
It does not make any changes to the Group Policies.
To use this installation method addEDGE_INSTALL_TYPE=NativeHostOnly
to the installation command for UiPathStudio.msi. Example:UiPathStudio.msi ADDLOCAL=DesktopFeature,Studio,Robot,RegisterService,EdgeExtension EDGE_INSTALL_TYPE=NativeHostOnly
. - In the ExtensionInstallForcelist policy, add the value:
- For the Group Policy Online installation method (that installs the extension from Microsoft Edge Add-ons Store):
dknkgjgkdpkmddgdjlgdhfojlaehikmk;https://edge.microsoft.com/extensionwebstorebase/v1/crx
- For the Group Policy Offline installation method (that installs the self-hosted extension):
ndmegdjihnhfmljjoaiimbipfhodnbgf;file:///C:/ProgramData/UiPath/UiPath.Common/EdgeExtension_SelfHosted/extension_manifest_edge.xml
- For the Group Policy Online installation method (that installs the extension from Microsoft Edge Add-ons Store):
- In the NativeMessagingAllowlist policy, add the value:
com.uipath.chromenativemsg_v2
.
