Hello,


I am facing a very odd problem with 2 ClickOnce application at a customer site.

The application install fine and they refuse to launch when double clicking the Desktop Shortcut.

The only thing that happens is briefly the dialog showing the computer connecting to the internet to check program requirements.

The dialog closes afterwards and nothing else happens

I have also tried to start the exe file by navigating with Windows Explorer to %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\.....\...\app.exe

The result is the same, nothing besides the online check

But if I open a Command Prompt (cmd.exe) and cd to the directory where app.exe resides (%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\.....\...\) I can start App.exe from the command line.

Any suggestion about what is preventing the app to be started from Windows Explorer / Desktop?


Thanks
