I write RPA bots on our company Windows Server VM. But Chrome and Edge shut down instantly when Brity starts them! I already re-setup Chrome and the web plugin, turned off Windows Defender browser guard, and rebooted the machine. Interestingly, UiPath gives the exact same crash but Internet Explorer survives fine. Any fixes?

2026-05-18T11:40:02.37+00:00 Hi Pradeep Chouhury,
The instant crash occurs because Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge utilize the Chromium engine, which features a security mechanism called Renderer Code Integrity. When RPA tools attempt to inject code into the browser to track elements, Chromium flags it as unauthorized and immediately kills the process. Internet Explorer survives because it uses a legacy, non-Chromium architecture without these strict checks.
To fix this,
Open
regeditand navigate toHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome(create the folders if they are missing).Right-click the empty space, create a new DWORD (32-bit) Value, name it RendererCodeIntegrityEnabled, and set its value data to 0.
Repeat the exact same step under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge.Restart your RPA software and ensure all background browser processes are completely closed for the new enterprise policies to take effect.
