While executing test suite, sometime ( about 30% times run ) chrome extension is removed, although it is installed before
Ranorex ver: 10.7

Any solution to this problem?

Hi,

I noticed the same thing: the plugin sometimes gets uninstalled and I also would like to know why.

Information and clarity regarding the Chrome plugin is definitely required.

Where can I find information about the Chrome plugin and its updates/version ?

I don't know if this has something to do with the fact that, once again, the Rx add-on from Chrome ver 1.3.1 is no longer available on the Chrome store.

Each time I run a remote test on a VM where only Rx Agent is installed, the add-on gets uninstalled from Chrome.


NB: Using Chrome add-on 1.3.1, since add-on 1.4.0 doesn't trigger the javascript associated with some webpages elements.

Considering the number of bug and problems faced when running tests in Chrome and Edge on Remote VM with Rx Agent, perhaps I should just consider installing Rx Studio on all remote systems.
