EvaluateXPath finds object but FindAllChildren doesn't

I'm new to TestComplete after coming over from Selenium and C#, so apologies in advance if this question has been asked before. I am trying to set up the automation for a new product being developed ...

    Found a workaround for this for Windows users:

    del /f /s /q C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Temp\* > nul 2>&1

I think I got it. It's a little bit of roundabout way to go about this, but it's effective and pretty easy. I take the page object and get a count of the results and use a for loop to a iterate through the,m. using the xpath for the results item tag (in this case it's ''//sts-people-search-results-item''). Taking the xpath and the index of the loop I have access to the underlying tags using xpath expressions that evaluate to an attribute as such to access a name (e.g. "//sts-people-search-results-item//a[@class="name']") . This removes the location dependency and allows my script to traverse the results

Thanks!!!
