Kantu pause commend randomly failing

UI.Vision RPA
1

Using the Kantu plugin for Chrome 67.0.3396.87 on Windows 10 Pro. When running a macro with multiple pause commands at I’ll have a few of them work and then on a random pause, Kantu will just stop. No error but there is no countdown and the macro does not continue. I can’t find a pattern but it’s causing a big headache getting things to run smoothly without a lot of manual intervention. Is this a known issue and is there any way to fix it?

Script below:

We will test this. Instead of the HTML code, can you please post the macro with the JSON source code (copy and paste from the Source View tab)? This allows us to simply copy the test code into our Kantu and test.

I have exactly the same problem: a pause command freezes 1 second before it’s supposed to end. So a pause of 30s would freeze after 29s. Never earlier.

Also, it’s not one specific pause command in the script, not even in a specific script. Sometimes all the scripts with all their pauses would run perfectly. And then just randomly one of the 20+ pause commands somewhere in a then running script would freeze.

No error is shown. Pause and resume does not work.

Strange thing is: it only began a few weeks ago. The scripts ran smoothly for months. I never had this problem before. And suddenly, without changing the scripts in any way, this problem appeared.

I run kantu in Chrome (v 75.0.xxxx.xx) on a windows 7 (64bit) machine
