    Hi,

     

    Depending on what controls are used by your tested application, you may consider to check that corresponding extension is enabled (File | Install Extensions...) and/or enable/adjust settings for MSAA and UI Automation (Project Properties | Project | Open Applications | MSAA/UI Automation).

    Also, if developers are using composite controls, you may consider to adjust Project Properties | Project | Open Applications | WPF settings.

     

    Also, check that 'Pre-Release...' text on the top-right corner is identified as a separate object. The case is that quite often menu items can be accessed either as an elements of, say, Items property of the menu object (e.g. menu.Items(0).Click) or as, say, menu('File').Click. But I would like to ensure that menu object itself is identified correctly. And this 'Pre-Release...' text looks like a separate text control which should be separately identified by Object Spy/in Object Browser.
