How to disable wait for page loading in ProTractor

I try to upload a file in ProTractor to the application, which is developed in Angular with Electron.

To do it manually I need to click on the "Browse" button and then select a file in the windows dialog "Open".

I managed already the part for providing of the path to the file and click on "Open" button on the dialog by using of AutoIt

var autoIt = require('autoit');
autoIt.Init();
autoIt.WinActivate("Open");
autoIt.WinWait("Open");
autoIt.ControlSetText("Open", "", "1148", appPath);
autoIt.ControlClick("Open", "", "1");

But this part of the code will be not executed after click on the "Browse" button

element(by.id('browseText')).click();

I guess that ProTractor waits for angular or for page loading, but because after clicking on the button the windows dialog is opened, the execution of further code is blocked. Also afterward I couldn't just output something in the console.

Is there an option to disable wait for page loading and to perform the action immediately after the click?

Unfortunately, the disabling of waiting for Angular didn't help as well as synchronization ignoring

browser.waitForAngularEnabled(false);
browser.ignoreSynchronization = true;

Thank you in advance for your support.

UPDATED

The problem is in the timing because when I try to execute the small following code

browser.waitForAngularEnabled(false);
element(by.id('browseText')).click()
.then(function () {
    console.log("clicked");
});

browser.sleep(5000)
.then(function () {
    console.log("5 sec are over!");
}); // wait 5 sec

browser.sleep(3000);
console.log("End");

The following happens:

  1. Firstly the "End" will be added to the console without waiting for 3 seconds.
  2. Afterward, the dialog will be opened, that means that the button was clicked
  3. And at the end, the test will be failed with Error "function timed out, ensure the promise resolves within 90000 milliseconds".

Here is the output of this code:

[09:37:14] I/launcher - Running 1 instances of WebDriver
[09:37:14] I/direct - Using ChromeDriver directly...

..End
..F

Let's be clear. This is work 100%:

browser.waitForAngularEnabled(false);

Protractor part, as I understand, also work. The Browser button is clicked. So, the issue in the Autoit part. The question is - "How to run Autoit?" Just add sleep to check is it waiting problem on the Autoit side:

element(by.id('browseText')).click();
browser.sleep(5000); // wait 5 sec
...
autoit code
...

If it works, so the issue in Autoit waiting.
