    Hi,

     

    Few days ago i had the same problem. I resolved it by deleting the "unsaved changes" name mapping file from directory:

     

    C:\testComplete\Project\NameMapping

     

    Did you try to delete it before open TC?

I deleted the file whose file extension indicated it was the supposed saved NameMapping data. Maybe works. I am awaiting a repeat of the symptom (or lack thereof) before determining if that is the "solution".

What I think I am seeing is this flow:

Something causes a name mapping unchanged stuff file (I wish I had noted the name and extension, but I did not).

You open TC and are prompted if you want to recover.

You say yes. <--- At this point the file should be removed. It is not. So you are forever in a weird Name Mapping state,

Not exactly scientific, but this is what I think I have observed. This strikes me as a defect.

    That would match what I saw too.
