  • In the tutorial Automate local newspaper delivery on Teams I used a home automation computer (the one in my kitchen) that displays Jeedom all the time, but when I go on vacation, I turn that computer off, I wanted the log recovery to continue working.

  • Download and install Setup.Microsoft.powerAutomate.exe

  • Net start UIFlowService 
  • Net start UIFlowAgentLauncherService 

and launch it at the start of the VM
