Windows Action Recorder does not capture my desktop app after it is loaded

Product Forums Katalon Studio

I am new to Katalon Studio and try to test windows desktop app but seems like katalon does not capture my desktop app when it is loaded. Searched previous posts but it does not help. Here is the steps to get the exception:

  1. Set developer mode
  2. Start WinAppDriver (ver 1.2.1)
  3. Start Katalon Studio (ver 8.6.0)
  4. Katalon - click to start Windows Action Recorder
  5. My desktop app started to load until fully loaded and waiting for login but the progress information still shows “Starting application”

  6. After 2 minutes, I got the exception:

I haven’t tried the latest version yet. I installed the version last year and got the same error . Notice I don’t have any problem with notepad.exe.

I downloaded the current version and seems like working now. Thanks dineshh. But not sure why it shows only a small black bar on the top instead of the whole login form:
