Hi,

Unfortunately, there is too little information about the AUT, used Ranorex version and overall test suite setup.
Please answer below questions...
Ranorex version? From your previous post, I remmeber you are using 8.1.something? But this is too old an no longer supported version. Have you tied to reproduce the problem with most recent 8.3.3 or 9.0?
Have you examined Ranorex instrumentation process troubleshoting guide?
https://www.ranorex.com/help/latest/int ... eshooting/
Have you tried to run Ranorex as administrator? This often helps with similar problems.
Could you please upload a Ranorex snapshot (NOT screenshot) of the problematic element/dialog?

Please add these details to your questions:
  • Ranorex Snapshot. Learn how to create one >here<
  • Ranorex xPath of problematic element(s)
  • Ranorex version
  • OS version
  • HW configuration
