Hi,

I'm getting the following error when pressing the install or run button on the clickonce page after deployment.

"Application Failed
Unable to activate the application. Please contact the application publisher"

Any ideas what causes this?

Does ClickOnce work much better with newer versions than Beta2?


Here are the error details and platform info.

I had the same 0x80070002 error coming from GetUserStore when running a ClickOnce application. It turned out that the user's UsrClass.dat registry hive hadn't loaded in correctly -after going to HKEY_USERS and manually loading it at [their SID]_Classes, theapp executed successfully.
