Detect and close unexpected window within the tested application

Hi,

 I'm currently trying to figure out how to close a window (within a tested application) that is sitting on top of another window. I cannot continue to test and access the objects on teh window, which I want to test, without closing the "unexpecte" window. 

 The issue that I'm having is that I cannot figure out whether or not there is a window sitting on top my the window, which I want to test. Both windows are enabled, available, and the focus is set to false. In addition, I've found that even when I close the offending window, the focus (for the window that I want to test) is still set to false (not sure why). 



Any help would be appreciated,

Newbie

    Thank you  Christophe Bleunven.

    The issue that I'm dealing with is when the "unexpected window" is a window, with the aapplication (which I'm testing). And Test Complete does not categorize the window as "unexpected". In other words, is there a way, in which I can tell, when a window is being overlapped by another?

    Hi TC9 Newbie,

    I'm not sure to clearly understand your problem. Could you post the log message you get when TC fails to access to the first window ?

    Do you use a "replay" of a recorded test or an "hand-made" test ?
