TL;DR - Update 13th February, 2025: Microsoft updated the behavior of this setting. Microsoft recently announced a toggle to disable the resubmission of instant or manual flows in all environment of your Tenant. As this was announced last minute and really doesn't make any sense (see below), here is a quick help to fix that again.

What does this mean?

For all manual (instant) cloud flows Microsoft, you usually can resubmit a failed or successful run to have the flow do the exact same again. For this you would use the Test flow from within the designer:

Once resubmitted you will get an instant error telling you that resubmission has been disabled.

Fix in Power Platform Admin Center

Old Admin Center: Settings > Power Automate flow run resubmission

New Admin Center: Manage > Tenant settings > Power Automate flow run resubmission

If the settings is enabled, any user that is assigned to that flow can re-run a flow run, even if it was originally run by somebody else. If this setting is disabled, only the user that triggered the flow run can resubmit this run again.

Here is the fix with PowerShell

If you do not want to enable it

If for some reason you do not want to enable it, users will have to manually start their flows to test or try again. This also means that if you want to test a child flow with the same inputs again, you will need to provide these inputs again, manually.

This goes for any manual flow that has or does not have inputs.
