I need to see the code itself beyond the line you are indicating.
Generally speaking, though, based upon the messages....
1) Something in your code is trying to use Chrome in an environment where Chrome is not installed hence it's switching over to firefox. If you intend to test your automation on multiple browsers, you need to make sure that you properly set up your code to be non-browser specific.
2) I see two different error message sets which indicates two different environments.... one in which Chrome is NOT installed and one on which it is. To narrow down your problem, let's stick with one environment
3) The "chrome extension is not installed" error seems to be something you need to address with the CrossBrowserTesting people. If an environment is being used by CrossBrowserTesting via TestComplete, the chrome extension needs to be present.
4) With CrossBrowserTesting, because many of these environments are being spun up from cold start, there are things that need to load. You're expecting the browser and the page to be immediately accessible in that line of code. You should use more "Wait" functions. Look up "WaitBrowser" and "WaitChild" and even the standard "Wait" function off of the page itself. These methods make the code "smarter" when it comes to detecting when an object is available.
Hi tristaanogre ,
Apologies, I did'nt share full details beyond test logs.
Actually first I execute my script with chrome browser only where this kind of error come "not installed".
Then again i changed the browser to firefox and execute the script. so that's error come on firefox browser.
and today i execute my script on crossbrowsertesting cloud then found I need to install Intelligent quality extension
because I have 14.30(64 but) TC version and it's required 32 bit.
Really ?

you still haven't shared what I asked for... the actual code.
Note that you can't run a test coded for Chrome on a CrossBrowserTesting environment without Chrome installed. So, it sounds, first of all, that you need to make sure that you're selecting appropriate environments for the tests your running. Additionally, as mentioned above, you need to make sure you write your automation code to be browser agnostic. That way you can run it on any environment and not have to worry about "not installed" errors.
As for the intelligent quality add-on, it's only required if you need to use the feature. But it's not something that is relevant to the original problem. Browser recognition has nothing to do with that add-on.

Hi tristaanogre
Thanks for reply.
I want to inform you when I execute my script It was wotking fine on (Windows 10, Chrome73-64bit). Whole script execute fine and generate report.
But when I am choosing (window 8, Or any other version of chrome, firefox)...not 64 bit then script is failed. Kindly check the failure in attachment.
Below is the code that i'm using.
Sub OpenBrowserWithURL (BrowserName,URL)
Dim firefox,InternetExplorer,Chrome,Edge
If (BrowserName="Firefox")Then
Browsers.Item(firefox).Navigate(URL)
Sys.Browser.BrowserWindow(0).Maximize
ElseIf (BrowserName="InternetExplorer")Then
Browsers.Item("iexplore", "11", Browsers.pX64).Run URL
Sys.Browser.BrowserWindow(0).Maximize
ElseIf (BrowserName="Edge")Then
Browsers.Item(btEdge).Navigate(URL)
Sys.Browser.BrowserWindow(0).Maximize
ElseIf (BrowserName="Chrome")Then
Browsers.Item(btChrome).Navigate(URL)
Sys.Browser("chrome").BrowserWindow(0).Maximize
Log.Checkpoint("Browser Name: "&BrowserName)
Log.Checkpoint("URL: "&URL)
End If
Browsers.Refresh

Hi,
> Below is the code that i'm using.
Either this is not the code that you reported problem for or attached screenshots do not correspond to this code.
So request to provide actual code, the line that fails and screenshot of the relevant test log still remains.
As a side note:
> Set page = Sys.Browser("*").Page("*")
This is a bad code that may be used only if you really need this and completely control the state of the test environment.
Translated into human, this line of code means: "Search the system for any instance of any browser. For the found instance search for any web page it contains and use this found page".
Considering the above: can you guarantee that your system has only one instance of required browser running with only one web page opened and the opened web page is the expected one? Note, that the "any instance of any browser" means not only browsers that you can see on the screen, but also those that are running in the background or hung and did not end on close.
