Hi,


According to your screenshot, on Windows XP, TestComplete exposes the application's objects with the MSAA plug-in. On Windows 7, it recognizes the application as a .NET application and provides access to its objects via special methods. Different behavior can be caused by different project settings of the General Open Applications Options group.


In order for TestComplete to recognize the application's objects in the same way, make sure that the settings are identical on both machines (see the attached image):



1. Check the order of object types on the Priority of objects list. NativeClrObject must be over NativeMSAA.

2. Increase the Method invoke timeout option's value to 30000.
