Internet Explorer stops responding while using CodedUI test builder to record a test

Hi,
Here is my problem description:
Internet explorer (9, 10, 11) stops responding while using CodedUI Test Builder to record a test scenario in IE. I am not able to input any values or click any buttons or perform any action on IE while recording a test on a remote desktop (visual studio
and IE are both on remote machine). Also tried by directly accessing the machine but no luck. The test builder says 'could not record the last action...'
A hand-coded script plays back fine without any problem.
System Details:
OS: Window 7 Professional with SP1 64-bit
Browser: IE 11 (tried with IE 9/10 also with no luck)
Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate Edition
I have tried the following from my past similar experiences.
1. Checked that I am recording on 32 bit IE
2. Tried with IE 9/10/11
3. Reset IE to factory settings
I will appreciate if someone can share some thoughts on the likely problem(s) and any recommended solution.
Regards,
Pankaj

Hi Pankaj,
>>'could not record the last action...'.
Actually it means that the coded UI test builder doesn't record the actions, I met this issue before when my machine is so busy, so I will get this issue if I record the steps so quickly.
I'm not very sure that how you connect to your remote desktop and record the actions, but like the above actions, we have to make sure that the steps were recorded in the Recorded Action window like A.
If not, please delete the steps from the no-recorded steps and re-record them again, maybe you could record the steps slowly.
I doubt that the remote connection impacts the recorded actions performance.
Best Regards,
Jack

    While using gmail in internet explorer in desktop mode it automatically closed, can't use continually.
    Why it happens ?

    Hi, Tinoj007.
    Welcome to the Microsoft Mobile Community.
    Are you still having trouble with your phone's Internet Explorer? If yes, you may try performing some basic troubleshooting in your phone. You may reboot first your phone by pressing and holding the volume down & power keys for 10-15 seconds and observe if this will make any difference on your phone. If this will not work, you may try considering to use another browser that you may download from the Store. With this new browser, you may try to log in with your Gmail account and observe if it will not crash like the one that you are experiencing with the IE browser. However, if this will still persist with your phone you may perform a full reset on your phone to fully refresh the system of your phone. Note that this will cause deletion of all the files saved in your phone. Creating a backup before doing this is a must. Try doing this trouble shooting and let us know the outcome of it.

  • Final cut pro HD, application stops responding while attempting to open

    I was using fcp 3.0.2 on a 10.3.5 G4, added the updates for os 10.3.6,10.3.7,10.3.8,10.3.9, then upgraded to QT 7pro, all yesterday. then upgraded to fcpHD from a production suite that I had but hadn't installed for about a year. now fcpHD stops responding while its starting up, always at the same spot when it says" loading audio filters", i tried starting fcp3 and it also stops responding during the application start up. any suggestions on ressurecting fcpHD or even 3? thanks, TB

    Welcome to the forum thomas93!
    Post more about your Mac... when was the last time you rebuilt the startup disk from the ground up? Might download and read my article on just how to do this. It's in the first issue of the Creative COW magazine... free pdf download after registering here: http://magazine.creativecow.net/index.html
    It sure sounds like your software is all messed up...
    I'd trash your preference files for FCP found here: User/Library/Application support/Final Cut Pro User data folder, then see if it opens... if not I'd erase the hard drive and start over ESPECIALLY if your mac didn't come with Panther, and you just "upgraded" to it from an earlier OS long ago... You'll need to backup everything you want to save first... or install a new ATA in your Mac, and install Panther on it, then the FCP software you have. You'll not need to install any earlier versions either, just have your serial number for the older version you're upgrading from ready when you install FCP HD.
    You also should be running QT 6 NOT QT 7 unless you upgrade to Tiger.

  • Internet explorer stops working when i download itunes

    Every time I try to download itunes, Internet explorer stops working. Help!

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

    Can't think of much else I'm afraid - don't actually use IE (or windows) that much myself.

  • Multiple instances of Internet Explorer in task manager using 100,000 KB+ memory

    Hi! I recently got a virus on my computer that causes multiple instances of explorer.exe and iexplorer.exe to appear in my processes tab of task manager. Over the course of about a minute, the memory usage of each begins to climb rapidly until all of my
    memory is being used by these. These do not appear in my applications, nor do they actually open up an internet explorer window. When I end task on them, another one appears about a minute later to take its place and do the same thing again. Additionally,
    when I click shut down to turn my computer off, various advertisements flash on my screen for a few seconds before the computer begins to shut down. When the computer is started up, a window appears for a split second that contains only blackness. I have never
    seen this window appear before the virus was obtained. When I end task on all my explorer.exe and iexplorer.exe applications at the same time, my desktop vanishes, but it also stops those applications from reappearing.  This virus has caused my computer
    to run unbearably slow. I have tried Spybot S&D, Exterminateit, AVG, Roadkill, and other methods and nothing seems to detect this or cure it. I am not that good with computers, but I am dying for help on the matter! If you can assist, please let me know
    what I can do with detailed instructions for my sake! Thank you!!!!!!

    See and follow Andy's excellent advices.
    In addition...
    See: "How to
    Reset Internet Explorer settings".
    If the issue persists...
    1. Please download and run the
    Microsoft Safety Scanner tool (freeware).
    2. Reboot your PC.
    3. Please download and update Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free
    4. Reboot Windows in
    Safe Mode and run a Full Scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
    5. Download and Run AdwCleaner (Freeware)
    6. Reboot and Test.

  • Internet Explorer stops working

    While trying to open PFD files I keep getting a error saying that Internet Explorer has stopped working, It was working fine then all of a sudden it ins't. Is anyone else having a problem like this? Anyone know of a fix?I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

    Hi,
    Just to let you know this solution worked. Thanks for the advice!
    I can't understand how this happened. I guess you have to be careful what you download from the internet as the downloads seem to come with toolbar add ons that clog up the settings on your computer. I will keep your solution to hand in case something like this happens again in the future. It's okay if you've been formally trained in computer use. I'm afraid I missed the boat with computing in school.
    Thanks so much

  • Flash Player Crashes In Internet Explorer 8&9 While Playing HD YouTube Video

    Has anyone else came across this issue? While on YouTube if you try to play a video in HD, it'll play for a second and then crash. This only happens in Internet Explorer. Any suggestions would be helpful. I have tried many things and this is driving me crazy! Thanks in advence for the input.

    So after 4 grueling hours of troubleshooting and trying different fixes, we finally solved the issue. Turns out that we were testing an HD YouTube video just to make sure that Flash Player was functioning without any speakers or headphones plugged in. For some reason when there is no audio device plugged in, the YouTube video starts to play regularly and the reverts to HD. As soon as it changes to HD, it'll crash. Simple as that. So, lesson learned and some advice. Always plug in an audio device. At first when I figured this out, I felt stupid. I then realized that it shouldn't matter if speakers are plugged in or not. A YouTube video should play no matter what if Flash is installed. Anyway, this issue was resolved. Thanks for the input everyone.

  • Internet Explorer 9 Beta - Anyone using it? Thoughts?

    Internet Explorer 9 Beta is very chrome-like visually.  The interface has transformed towards the minimalist approach first seen in Google Chrome. It definitely looks pretty and feels faster than ever before.  I just hope Microsoft plans to update it regularly once it launches officially in order to keep up with the fast pace of evolution that Firefox and Chrome have demonstrated while steadily dwindling away at Microsoft's once dominant browser usage.
    I recommend giving IE9 beta a try, it's not just the browser you use to down the browser you want to use anymore, maybe

    I use it at home, and I am completely impressed. The hardware accelleration was a bonus, as I hoped it improved flash performance for my wife in facebook games; farmville, etc. So far it works, but there are occasional reloads, etc, that need to be done not common with Firefox or Chrome. Overall interface is almost precisely like Chrome - it seems a mirror copy with only a branding and icon set change. There are a few additional features but none I'd ever use. As this is a beta version, I'm insure stability will improve over time.
    At this point I'd say IE has *caught up* with the likes of Chrome, etc, which might excite Chrome into implementing a few extra changes itself. I would not say that IE has broken any new ground, but it has been 'put back' in my list of browsers I swap through, for reasons of best performance per application.
