Ranorex Spy recognize same objects differently

Hello,

I have an issue with object recognition.
I am trying to automate Team Explorer in Visual Studio and have to run VS as different users for different tests.
Unfortunately starting VS as different user result in different path to same item.

Attached are two snapshots of one of the popup form that cause problems.
Both of them are representing same item, but one is from VS started as me (administrator) second is started by our test-user.

And as you can see there are recognized different items (elements vs containers, and also sometimes different tree structure).

I need to get same result in both cases.

Those snapshots were taken on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard, Service Pack 1.
Using Ranorex Studio Version 5.0.3.18203.
When perform same actions on another PC with Win7, I always get same results (like in VS1 attachment).

I didn't get any Technology limitations warnings (like when I would try to track
from spy opened by test-user user on VS opened by me, which is understandable as test -user doesn't have access to my user files).

Would appreciate any help.

Regards,
Przemek
