The following link is the help page for running a desktop flow, which mentions that input parameters can be set (as shown in the image below). However, in the current version, I cannot see these input parameters.

Please help confirm:

Has this feature been removed?
If not removed, how can these parameters be displayed?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions and assistance.

You need to first create the input variable in your flow and give it a type and a name.

You can can give it a default value and run it in the edit window with that value.
Or close the flow editing window and just press play on the flow.

Then it should ask values for the input parameters first before the flow starts
