How would this affect Uipath, Automationanywhere and other windows only RPA providers?

Now that RPA is pretty much free and part of the operating system, would companies still pay for RPA?

One concern with the MS option is that it's not their only product so they could drop or degrade it in the future without impacting their bottom line. The other RPA vendors are tied to their RPA products. The fact that it's going to be free makes it feel like they didn't get enough sales and so it's not worth pumping anymore.
