Instead of just Exists, you can use a Wait to do a similar thing and also control the timing. Here's a reference for that:
Hi Marsha_R thanks for the reply. However in my case there are some cases where the control might not be present at all and it would be ok.
Using changing the timeout might be good for me to reduce the wait time, but .Exists seems to be the only property i can use to avoid a crash and to correctly figure out if the control is available or not.
You use the Wait to see if it exists and then decide what to do it if does exist and what to do if it does not.
There are examples here
