    What are the fields output by Steps Recorder?


    Hi,


    I'm using Steps Recorder as a way to log user actions so I can harvest data (programs used, buttons selected, etc.)


    I'd like to know, are there standard field definitions for Microsoft tools (e.g.: excel, word, …)?


    Some are obvious, but if there is a file with names for each field output to the recorded steps file...that would be extremely helpful!


    thx,


    J

    :)

    Steps Recorder there... but not there


    I seemed to have been saved by a link to this fix:
    Please use regedit to rename hklm\software\policies\microsoft\windows\AppCompat - changeAppCompat to AppCompat_HOLD . Then try launching PSR again.
    Tried it and now Steps Recorder seems to be working as it should.
    But to follow up on your suggestion, I'm going to try to find and repair the corrupt files that my sfc scan found... after setting a restore point!
    Thanks for your help.

    Steps Recorder there... but not there


    Are you trying to use this? - C:\Windows\System32\psr.exe
    [Start menu, Windows accessories, Steps recorder - but often referred to as the Problem steps recorder]

    It is supposed to launch a small UI dialog and it should also be shown on the Taskbar but, from your description, this does not happen. Does anything happen at all?

    I really don't know what to suggest to you.

    Even though you can not see it on screen, does it show in task manager ? I wonder if it might be worth you running a system file check using :

    sfc/ SCANNOW from an elevated command prompt.
