Access Denied with new option 'ms:experimental-webdriver'

[CyrilJ]

Hello,

I tried the new version of winappdriver seems working well, but sometimes i got an Access Denied error.
No problem with the previous version.

I'm using WD in javascript

@CyrilJ Thanks to report it. Could you please help:

1. How often do you hit the problem? Do you use xpath when this problem happens?
2. Do you still hit this when you remove 'ms:experimental-webdriver' capability?
3. Is there any error in WinAppDriver console?

Another possible reason is what VijayHugar described in #892, you have duplicated elements with the same locator.

I will try as soon as i can without the option.
But the older version of WAP was working properly (1.1), didn't have Access denied before migrating and testing.

Just out of pure curiosity, can you try setting the capability to false and see if the issue persists:

C#: appCapabilities.SetCapability("ms:experimental-webdriver", false);
