TestComplete very slow finding MFC controls on Windows 8

The slowdown is significant. It takes about 8 minutes to click a menu.



It's not that everything doesn't work. The pattern of fails and passes is identical to the same suite in an identically configured Windows 7 system. The only difference is in performance regarding the MFC controls: windows, tabs, combo boxes and buttons.



I've tried some obvious things. I've set all the testcomplete executables for Windows 7 compatibility and set them all to run as adminstrator, turned off visualizer, removed the plug-ins we don't use. Nothing seems to help.



Our application is not an open application. To TestComplete, it's a series of independent executables.



Suggestions, anyone? Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Ian,


     


    I've heard that a similar issue was resolved in TestComplete 9.31. Could you please update your product version?
