problem with object spy and browser

Hello,

So I am not sure why it is not working.
I started ATP on web quite recently, so I am new at this. Just yesterday it seemed like the object spy was working all nicely, today when I tried to use it it selects whole browser window instead of the element I require. Doesn't matter if i use it on Chrome or IE (prefered IE on this case).

 

Why is that?

Edit: as well I am having problems with my mapped items. Even the simpliest iexplore cannot be highlighten as I'm getting an error "cannot highlight this object on screen". Seems like all mapping is failing. What i did recently is reinstalled my TC, could this somehow influence all this misbehavior to the previously mapped items?
Edit2: runing TC on administrator. I seem to be able to map other elements, but nothing connected inside the browser itself, meaning the application/web itself.

    Click Tools and select "Current Project Properties"

     

    Add "Internet Explorer_Server" and "DirectUIHWND"

    these had to be adden on Open applications -> UI Automation
