      It is possible for your main object to Exist without being Visible, so what you tried makes sense even though it's not doing what you intended.

       

      You can try another property instead of Exists, possibly Enabled, to get the failure that you need.  

       

      You could also try nested If Objects and make one for the window exists and one for the button exists.

        Edit: it looks like that fixed it. I will have to dive further into seeing why it's being so finky.
