    To address 2nd and 3rd processes, use the following format of the Process() method:

    Sys.Process(name, 2)

    Sys.Process(name, 3)



    For example, the following code will terminate the 3rd firefox process



    Sys.Process("firefox", 3).Terminate

    Hi. I tried your solution using Sys.Process("firefox", 3).Terminate 
    and Sys.Process("firefox", 2).Terminate. No window will get closed. In the log I get the errors: "Process not found" with the remark "Name=firefox,Index=3"

     and

     "The object does not exist. " with the remark "You are trying to call the Terminate method or property of the Process("firefox", 3) object that does not exist.

    Best regards

    Hi, Nassim.


    This is an issue related to playing back the test for the Mozilla Firefox browser. I've registered it in our DB. Thanks for reporting it.


    I have one suggestion: try to record all the actions you need by using the Internet Explorer browser and then change the name of the used process from iexplore to firefox. Does this help?

    Hi,

    Looking at Object Browser, I tried

    Sys.Process("firefox").Window("MozillaUIWindowClass", "windowCaption", 1).Close

    It functions correctly and solves my problem.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi Nassim,


    Our developers are investigating the problem you described in your first post. They ask whether they can obtain the recorded script code (that didn't work).


    So, it would be very helpful for us, if you:

    1. Posted that recorded code here. If you don't want to share it on the forum, please send the code to our Support Team.

    2. Told us the exact version of the Mozilla Firefox browser you are using.


    Thanks a lot.
