When I try to create a software simulation, it records blank screens, see below, my keys (End to stop or f9/f10) also do not work. Can you help???

Have tried clearing cleanpreferenceWin.bat file, changing cache and project files to local drive, nothing works. Thanks, S

    Hi Rob,

    I created a software simulation last week and it recorded fine. I

    This issue just started yesterday…I add a slide software simulation, none of the keys work the screen is blank, except for a few text boxes.

    I am not running it as an Admin privilege.

    Please advise.

    Thanks, S

    When you start Captivate without that option 'Run as Administrator' you'll get a warning, and especially Capturing needs this setup, at least if you are on a Win PC.
