Hey kamal, What errors you are getting?
Hi Mukesh, I have been a frequent visitor to your channel. I appreciate all your efforts in making life easier for all the testers out there. I was just following this video and trying to automate the calculator, but UISPY gives me an error on the start that limited user access will limit most of the features and when I run it I don't see the pane item for a calculator as you do. So, I tried to use INSPECT.EXE app instead of UISPy. and the automationid i got for the buttons are "num1Button" etc. But when I run the program, I see that it opened calc app but does nothing and no errors as well. Can you please let me know any reason for this? I am using findElement.id and also tried .name as well. But no luck.

Which spy tool you are using? I have given multiple tool link so try different tools as well for identification.
Very Nice Video. Actually I am trying the same on system but not inspecting tools are not working correctly. Is there other tools to inspect elements.??
In my application ihaving 2 buttons with same name and same class name how can i identify one button and click on it through winium... i am using object spy
In this case you can use findElements which will return List and then you can use index in program.
thaks for your explanation. but i have a question. Can i automate an opened app? an app who were open by other app
Have not tried but recommend to open new session for automation. You can use TagUI which works on existing session.
