Hi Allan,

when I launch openRPA it opens and then closes after few seconds.

I have followed exact steps suggested here but I am still unable to resolve it.

the steps are:

Restarting openRPA

Disabling SAP module

Running the .msi file again

Running it as an administrator

Installing and Uninstalling openRPA

The documents/OpenRPA/layout folder file was corrupted, I deleted the file and as soon as OpenRPA started it recreated the file and it worked

here is the link to my .dmp file [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n0ZlBftwINYptFa8TqdzUYXXcmaIkMbU/view?usp=sharing](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n0ZlBftwINYptFa8TqdzUYXXcmaIkMbU/view?usp=sharing)

Error is in MS Speech. Remove the extension if you don’t need the speech extension.
