'Element not available' error occurs after clicking on the expected element.

[ghost]

Hi,

I have a desktop application that has a login screen with two buttons (Sign In and Change Password). After entering the username and password, while performing click operation on 'Sign In' button, the button is clicked, but after that 'Element not available' error occurs.

Scenario:

1. After clicking on 'Sign In' button, immediately a popup message will be displayed on top of the 'Sign In' button, at that time 'Sign In' button will not be visible, in this scenario I am getting the error 'Element not available', but the expected click operation is completed, still am getting the issue.

2. There is another button named 'Change Password', while performing the same click operation on this button, I didn't get any error, because after clicking that button login screen window will be expanded and 'Change Password' button is still visible.

Could anyone please suggest how to resolve this issue?

After clicking the signin button, please capture the popup message using textblock and continue click OK button from popup and proceed. If you could share the exact lines of codes it will be helpful to provide better suggestions.
