Description

When users attempt to open a MS Visio file from their local computer, the application fails to start with the following error: "App" failed to start. The Citrix server is unable to process your request to start this published application. Please try again. If the problem persists, contact your administrator.

On the VDA, we get error Event ID 1480: Failed to launch application App with command line '"C:\Program Files\...." ' on client 'xxx' for domain/user 'xxx' in session 'x'. Ensure that the application is installed and that the user has permission to launch it.

Resolution

Changing the location of the published app from “%ProgramFiles%...” to “C:\Program Files…” resolves the issue.
