OpenScript 9.0 - Error starting recorder/cannot get connection from helper

728408Oct 16 2009 — edited Nov 1 2011
Hello!

I just downloaded and installed OpenScript 9.0 and tried to record a script. As I hit the record button, my IE browser opened and 1 encountered this error:

My configuration:
- OpenScript: Version: 9.0.0.0 Production Build ID: 2.3.0.1355
- OFT: 8.40.0199(IE7)
- Windows XP SP2 Professional x64
- IE7

A few questions:
- Does OpenScript not work in Windows x64?
- Or it was because of my old version of OFT?

Any inputs are very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
