am trying to run watir scripts on Wndows 7 on IE8 as administrator. Here is problem description: Problem was with below statement(popup windows) popup = Watir::IE.attach(:url, /ContactDetails/) and Error message was ‘ Unable to locate the url(ContactDetails)
The issue seems to be that when there already exists an instance of IE8 that was opened with administrative privs, Watir won't see any other IE8 windows that are being run as admin, including ones it opens itself. Fix that i have been doing: Turn off User Account Control (set to the lowest setting). Go to Control Panel->System and Security->Action Center->Change User Account Control settings, and drop the slider to the lowest setting. But this is not a permanent fix, i have to change the windows 7 settings every day to run my automation script. Can anyone help me finding out the permanent solution ? --- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/watir/watir-webdriver/issues/169
