Window Timeout

This functionality is supported only if you are using the Classic Agent.

When you install Visual Basic and ActiveX support in Silk Test Classic, the Window Timeout setting in the Agent Options dialog is initially set to 20 seconds. This setting determines how long the recovery system waits when checking to see if your application exists. If you choose to change the Window Timeout setting to a low number or 0, you may encounter a timing problem, where rapidly exiting and restarting an application may generate "Windows not found" errors.

Setting this option is not required when testing ActiveX controls in Internet Explorer, but is recommended as a general practice.
