@kazurayam I tried with script using different windows user in my local machine using Katalon. I can successfully load that user profile with normal scripting but i get an error when i run the same script inside client network as i don’t have permission to access other user profiles. So I will ask for me to grant access for other profiles as this is the only simple way where i can achieve this scenario. Thanks for your help!! ---
