We have a team that is unable to run the latest holLaunchPadOnline.application files that come down from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/aa570323.aspx. When you try to execute you receive a message box stating "application cannot be started. contact the application vendor." OK or Details. (details attached below) I can run this on a machine as an admin, but we do not permit all users to have admin rights. Is there a way to execute these clickonce apps without admin rights? There are a lot of valuable virtual labs that can not be ran by people. :(
Lets just use this one as an example
