Your advice about "other path" finally led me to find the problem.
This is one of those rare automation-caused issues where there were *TWO* identical dialog boxes, one perfectly on top of the other.
When I run the .exe manually, there is only a single dialog, but in automation, there are two.
But interestingly, knowing that still didn't help resolve the object name. So after spending too much time on it, I put a long timeout around the next step, and manually clicked both YES dialog buttons. The test completes properly.
If I have time, I'll debug this further in the future.
I appreciate the help.
