Designer Workflow Dependencies Edits Cannot be Saved

I initially had an error " Runner Tool: Failed to run external program "SupportingExes\AlteryxRunner.exe": The system cannot find the file specified." when trying to run CrewMacros Runner Tool. Then I looked at the workflow dependencies and figured out that the path for installing the runner tool is not correct. So I went to edit and updated the correct one and clicked OK. However the updates I made cannot be saved in the tool. The same error keeps popping up when trying to rerun the workflow. And when getting back to check the workflow dependencies, the updates were not saved.

Can anyone help on this please?

Many thanks,

Zoey

Hi @ZoeyL1GL

Am I correct by saying you're putting the macro in a ZIP folder? (Temp1_Macros.zip)

Could you put it in a regular folder? Just to test it.

Hi @ZoeyL1GL

Are you using relative paths?

At least if you post screenshots of the errors and how workflow dependencies are configured we could have a better picture of what you're going through.

Hi @Thableaus ,

Thanks for replying. No I had used absolute paths. Please find below the screenshot.

prior editing the path, when testing, the directory doesnt existafter updating the path by removing the runner tool at the back, testing to see the path works. Then saved the updated path by clicked OK. Closed the window after clicking OK.Ran the workflow and the runner tool still throwing out error. When getting back to check the workflow dependencies window, the edited path went back to the old one.
