Correct is B. The mentioned documentation is describing this quite exactly: "To run unattended UI flows, the target machine needs to be available with all users signed out."

Agreed, further to that point "Windows 10 devices cannot run unattended if there are any active Windows user sessions present (even a locked one). You will receive this error: Cannot execute UI flow. There is a locked or an inactive Windows user session on the target device." just below. B is correct here.

Selected Answer: C
B says "all user sessions", which I interpret to mean all users sessions across all devices in the network. We don't care if other devices have signed in users. We only care if the target device does. This hinges on the definition of an "Active Session". If Active = Signed in (whether locked or unlocked), then C is the right answer, because it's the option that specifies only on the target device.

Selected Answer: B
"Unattended desktop flows require an available machine with all users signed out." Reference link and it is highlighted in the Important section. This is the EXACT bullet point. Cannot be C because you can have a user still signed in with an 'INACTIVE" session that would prevent the unattended run. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/run-unattended-desktop-flows

To run the UI flow on a Windows 10 device without physical user intervention: Correct answer: D. Ensure that all user sessions are signed out except for locked user sessions. Explanation: For a UI flow to run successfully on a Windows 10 device: The device must be unlocked (but not necessarily logged in). No active user sessions should be present (to avoid interference). A locked user session allows the flow to run in the background. By ensuring all user sessions are signed out except for locked user sessions: 1. The flow can sign in with the User1 account credentials. 2. The flow runs without physical user intervention. 3. The flow can access the required applications.

Question mentions Windows 10, from Documentation: Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices can't run unattended desktop flows if any active Windows user sessions are present (even a locked one). I am not sure, C and B, both sound correct, not sure why B is getting more votes than C https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/run-unattended-desktop-flows
