Pywinauto fails in VS Code and Succeeds in CMD


My very simple pywinauto code runs smoothly on VS code until recently. In the last few days I didn't manage to run this code in VS code (always get an ElementNotFound exception) while the exact same code runs successfully in CMD.

Why is that?

EDIT: Managed to overcome this - had to add wait() after application connect.


Solution

  • After some time I have realized that adding sleep() interruptions after Application.connect() resolved the abovementioned issue.
