String mainWindow = driver.getWindowHandle();

driver.findElement(By.xpath(pro.getProperty(""))).click();

for(String newWindow : driver.getWindowHandles()){

driver.switchTo().window(newWindow);
}


driver.close();

Log.info("Closing the current Opened Window - Invoice");
driver.switchTo().window(mainWindow); ---error in this line

I am getting error while switching to main window. error is like:
org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchWindowException: no such window: target window
already closed from unknown error: web view not found

i have tried switching to default window, commenting driver.close and
adding thread.sleep also but issue not resolved.

Hi Sreedevi,

The error itself telling that the window you're trying to switch to is
already closed and it happened when you switched between multiple
tabs/windows through for loop and closed the tab/window you reached at
last. So here your for loop reaching your main tab at last which you're
closing once you're coming out of loop. To avoid closing of your main
tab,put condition in for loop to check if it is your main tab, if it is so
then don't switch to it.
Please let me know if you find any difficulty doing this.

Thanks,
Meenal
