    The solution is to use the following switches when you launch Chrome:

     

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\Chrome.exe --disable-web-security --disable-site-isolation-trials --user-data-dir="C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default"

     

    All my tests in Chrome and edge now can access the objects in the Iframe.

    Thanks to the Smartbear support for providing this solution.

Does this mean that Chrome is no longer run as a browser and has to be run as a testedApp

Chrome instance that spawns is different from what I was expecting

 

Unfortunately this is not an option for me, my domain security blocks this 'NEW' browser

 

Is there any other way of reading the iframe  ?

I'm having the same problem. When I open Chrome from Tested Apps it opens a version of Chrome without the TestComplete extension and throws an error.
