With the update to the latest version of Power Automate (2.55), which will become available in April 2025, the .NET 8 runtime will be required to be installed in your environment.
How does this affect me?
The Power Automate MSI installer downloads and installs the .NET 8 runtime if it isn’t already on your machine. Without .NET 8, computers need internet access to these URLs:
- https://aka.ms/dotnet/8.0/windowsdesktop-runtime-win-x64.exe
- https://aka.ms/dotnet/8.0/windowsdesktop-runtime-win-x86.exe
What action do I need to take?
No action is needed if your machine already has .NET 8 x86 and x64 installed. If you do not have these installed, the installer will automatically download and install them from the URLs listed above. However, if your machine does not have .NET 8 installed and does not have access to those URLs, you will need to manually install the runtimes prior to installing Power Automate Desktop.
