We were founded in 2005 in a tiny apartment in Bucharest, Romania as DeskOver.

Fittingly, it was a customer who, in 2012, first saw the immense possibilities for us in the fledgling RPA market. Our desktop automation product launched in 2013. In 2015, we introduced our enterprise platform along with our new name.

Today, UiPath is the fastest-growing enterprise software company in history with scores of offices, thousands of employees, partnerships with the world’s best consulting and BPO firms, a 500,000-strong developer community, and 5MM+ robots at work in over 5,000 global enterprises.

Our mission is to deliver the leading Robotic Process Automation platform to our clients for an automation first mindset.

We build software robots that automate repetitive processes. Our software robots take on the tedious, mind-numbing work and free people to do the more stimulating, creative work worth doing.

But no matter how much we’ve grown, one thing hasn’t changed. We’re still building a company we love to work for

This package consists of two activities:Run Process With Timeout&nbsp;- allows starting processes and waiting for them to exit using the System.Diagnostic.Process class.Run Script With Timeout&nbsp;- allows starting scripts and waiting for them to exit using Windows Script Host (cscript.exe) application.The only difference between the two activities is that&nbsp;Run Script With Timeout&nbsp;utilizes the&nbsp;<a href=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Script_Host target=_blank>Windows Scripting Host&nbsp;</a>(cscript.exe) to run the script specified in the filename. Both of them use the System.Diagnostic.Process class.&nbsp;Use cases:<ul><li>SAP has a built in recorder that translates screen interactions into a VBS script. Existing VBS scripts can now be invoked using the Run Script With Timeout activity in the automation workflows.</li><li>Existing scripts or command line applications can be integrated in a synchronous&nbsp;manner allowing the RPA developer to also utilize their output the&nbsp;automation workflows.</li></ul>NOTE: Installation Guidelines for Custom Activities can be found <a href=https://dmtyylqvwgyxw.cloudfront.net/instances/214/assets/help-guides/UiPath-Go-Installation-Guide-Custom-Activities.pdf target=_blank>here</a>

Thank you for these activities! They work perfectly. I tested with PowerShell scripts and everything worked as expected. They are definitely a good replacement for the Invoke PS activity.
