Hello Carl,

Please note that this behavior is observed when you are using an older version of IE. Please note that as of Test Studio R2 2016 we support only IE11. Another problem is if you are using IE11 in compatibility mode, please note that is also not supported.

Please also note that some applications require older version and this is achieved as demonstrated in the following article: 
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj676915(v=vs.85).aspx 

If you are using IE11 and not using compatibility mode then we will need access to the application your are testing so we can replicate this behavior and investigate further.

Best Regards,
Ivaylo
