ADO Pipeline Execution Fail issue after TC\TE upgrade

I have noticed this issue after some past TC\TE upgrades.

Once I have completed the TC\TE upgrades and see that TC\TE open up after upgrading
I'll then go to test that an ADO pipeline starts up correctly.

Initially the ADO pipeline fails with:

Cmd.exe exited with code '2147483647'.

My ADO pipeline did work prior to the upgrade.

In debugging the cmd line structure that I am sending to the Agent
I have determined that if I execute the following manually on my Hyper-V

From a CMD window:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\TestExecute 15\Bin\TestExecute.exe"

"C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\TestComplete 15\Bin\TestComplete.exe"

Just to be sure TC\TE doing open up like it should ...

TC\TE will start up but will provide this Error pop-up respectively per version I ran:

Click 'OK' - TC\TE completes and opens up like it should.
I'll close TC\TE.

Going back to running my ADO pipeline, it will execute like it should.


I do need to test this on the x64 version of TC\TE to see if the same issue occurs.

Anyone have this issue ?
I do need to open an ticket on this for Dev to look into.

    Are you testing Avalonia UI? I noticed in my Install Extensions, I had something called Internal\Avalonia UI, which I had enabled in TC x64. When I launched TC x32, I got the same error message as you, appearing. 

    I'm now not able to get Internal\Avalonia UI appearing, so it could have been a bug

    There's also a folder called SmartBear\TestComplete 15\x64\Bin\Extensions\AvaloniaUI, which I'm assuming shouldn't be there!

    The option may be enabled for you, and hence is causing the issue.
