@emine Thanks for your response but my issue is not related to record and play.
I am facing the issues where xpath is not locating the element.
Previously xpath working fine with the google chrome 75 version but started getting error after upgrade from 75 to 76.0.3809.100 . seeking help on this.
This is the error I am facing:

Hi Helen,
I am facing issue with using the chrome exe for 76 that you have shared. It says “Starting ChromeDriver 76.0.3809.68 (420c9498db8ce8fcd190a954d51297672c1515d5-refs/branch-heads/3809@{#864}) on port 9515

Currently my scripts aren’t running on chrome 79. I would like to install Katalon compatible chrome version. Please help.
Thanks,
Roopa
Hi roopa,
This message is just a warning.
But for Chrome 79, you have to use the ChromeDriver 79 : https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=79.0.3945.36/
When Chrome is updated, you can click on “Parent Directory” and then search for the latest driver for your version.
Thank you so much Helene… that worked!!! 
To be a bit more specific, the Chrome Driver version must match the installed version of Chrome on your computer. In most cases, that’s the latest version as Chrome is “evergreen” and will automatically update. However, some organizations lock it down and prevent this. For me, it was several versions old, but it was easy enough to confirm the installed version of Chrome and manually drop in the correct driver. I hope this helps someone else.
Hi, it is working for me ,I’ve replaced the driver with the latest stable chrome driver
