Object mapping fails after the TestComplete upgrade due to a Chrome compatibility issue.

Hi everyone,
I’m running automated TAL web application tests for login, account search, pricing, Builder, and roster creation using TestComplete 15.77.6.7 with Chrome 151.
Tests that previously worked are now failing because controls are identified as invisible, missing, stale, outside the browser window, or mapped to incorrect screen locations. I’m also having trouble mapping new objects because TestComplete does not consistently recognize their correct locations.
Has anyone else experienced this issue with Chrome 151? Is there a compatible patch available, or can anyone recommend a stable TestComplete and Chrome version combination?

thanks,

Gill

The issue that you have described has already been discussed and fixed in the latest version of TestComplete.

If you run the command,

TestComplete1584SLM.exe -clean

or

TestComplete1584SLM.exe --clean

it will perform a clean installation.
