There might be cases where interacting with RDP/Citrix applications might timeout and require more time to work. These timeouts can be configured like the rest of Power Automate timeouts like in [Timeout configuration for UI and browser automation](/power-automate/desktop-flows/how-to/ui-automation-change-timeout-cofiguration). Use this guide to configure the following values as needed.

The reson for this is that there might be cases where interacting with RDP/Citrix applications might timeout and require more time to work. These time-outs can be configured like the rest of Power Automate time-outs like in [time-out configuration for UI and browser automation](/power-automate/desktop-flows/how-to/ui-automation-change-timeout-cofiguration). Use this guide to configure the following values as needed.

The specific configrations that need to be changed in this case are the following:

- **Java.Bridge.Client.ReadWriteTimeout**: In case the target application is JAVA based, this timeout additionally increases time waiting for responses. In remote JAVA applications (RDP/Citrix), this timeout needs to be changed on the remote machine.

- **BrowserNativeMessageHost.MessageTimeout** and **WebExtensionsMessageProxy.SendTimeout**: In case web automation is used, this timeout increases the max time that waits for webpages to respond. In remote webpages (RDP/Citrix), this timeout needs to be changed on the remote machine.

- **RDP.Client.CallTimeOut**: When the application/webpage is on a remote machine, either RDP or Citrix. This timeout additionally increases the max time that waits for the remote application/webpage to respond.

If the problem is design oriented (for example, failing to capture an Element from the designer), you also need to configure the following too:
