I just recorded a test including a step with a drop down box. While recording, there were no problems. But as i tried to run the test in order to submit the bug, an error occured and the client was not able to choose the item of the dropdown box. By now, the problem occured several times, bot in Internet Explorer as well in a programm (.exe).
I have already tried to put a break between the steps, but it didn't solve the problem as well.
Here's one Log:

Moreover I got another small problem. If I want to try to record critical errors (xxx.exe) I'm not able to do so, because Telerik prevents the programme from a crash. Is there any possibility to cause the crash in order to record it or not ?

Is there any possibility to cause the crash in order to record it or not ?I'm not sure I understand this properly. I'm not sure what you're referring to by crash. Perhaps you can record a video of this event and how Test Studio is preventing it. Jing is a great piece of software that will allow you to record your desktop. Go ahead and give us additional info so that we may assist.
