Keyword variables being changed ("scrambled") after saving
Im experiencing a very odd behavior when creating some of my test cases which requires some string variables to be specified.
From time to time those variables will get saved with the text changed to some random string.
For instance if i look at the tcKDTest for my variable a simple string got changed to:
<Variable Name="expectedFileName" Type="String" Local="False">
<DefValue StrValue=".??B64??.:U1BfSUVFRTROb2RlX1lnWWcuZjA1" />
</Variable>
And obviously this was not the string i have initially inputed inside testcomplete.
What could cause such an issue?
