Every URL is a "page" in the object tree of TestComplete.  So, simply selecting Browser.Page('*') isn't going to get the current page necessarily.  The "current" page is identifed by whether or not the "Visible" property is true.

So, in your getURL, I would actually search for whatever page object is currently visible.

function getURL(){ 
  
  var browser = Sys.Browser("Chrome");
  var page = browser.FindChild(["ObjectType", "Visible"],["Page", true], 0);
  var url = page.URL;
  return url;

}

I tired this solution, and it worked well the first time, but when I was re-running the tests, same old thing started occuring again. It was closing the main dashboard page. 

 

Thank you
