General issues interacting with Desktop/Web app

Main Question: Does anyone else use TestComplete to test a C++ MFC (Rogue Wave + Stingray) application? If so, are you able to see the MSVC attributes when using TestComplete version 1577 and/or 1578?

Background: Today I've spent testing out different versions of TestComplete. Version 15.68 through 15.76 have no issues accessing the MSVC properties (attributes) of the C++ application. However, version 15.77 can no longer see certain attributes for the C++ application. However, version 15.77 is the first version that can successfully interact with dropdowns in a browser (chrome 141). I cannot downgrade the version of Chrome. 

Currently I am forced to use version 15.76 or earlier for testing the desktop application and version 15.77 or later to test the web applications. This is not optimal and am concerned about the more recent versions not able to access the MSVC properties.

    Ideally, you should open a support ticket and let SmartBear know about your findings!

    Providing you are using the supported browser version as stated on their website, there shouldn't (fingers-crossed) be any issues - same applies with desktop app technology used.
