Keyword test steps suddenly stopped recording

I'm on version 15.68.8.7. I'm trying to record keyword tests on a .net desktop application. I've been doing this for years with TestComplete but suddenly it's not working. It appears to be recording but then when I click stop, nothing shows on the screen.

I've rebooted, uninstalled TestComplete, re-installed. Still the same issue. 

See attached screenshot of what it shows after recording.

 

 

  • It ended up being the setting for Enable Windows support for testing Store applications. Once I disabled that and rebooted, I no longer had the issue.

      I did have Dark theme running but even when changing that, nothing.

  • Not sure if that would help you isolate the root cause.

    If you start a new project, do you still have the same problem?

    Also the browser extension may be the issue. Uninstall and reinstall should fix it but also a reboot in-between would be required.
