  • Click Replay, to replay the login in the selected browser.
  • Change the selected browser and Replay in a different browser.
  • Click Select > Wait Actions, and increase the wait time between requests.
  • Review the "Type" of specific requests in the procedure and change them if needed.
  • Click Edit playback actions to view and edit in XML format.
  • Increase the timeout for a single login attempt.
