Hi all, I had same issue, and I “fixed” it installing new version of katalon studio (6.3.X)… But now, all my test cases fails because katalon doesn’t find the web elements recorded… All my work to the trash…? and trying to re-record test cases still doesn’t work… I don’t know what should I do Good luck ---
