I saw a couple posts on this but nothing really clear. I've got a
very simple c# windows form application that basically is just a form
and a label. There is only on pc that I'm having problems with (my
bosses of course). When we run the set up it seems to download ok,
but when it starts it only shows the icon in the task bar, and then
dies right away and the form never shows. I'm just publishing to a
network share with all the default options.

Does anyone have any ideas of things to look at that might be the
problem?

Thanks,

Gary

This may have something to do with the ClickOnce auto-update feature.
With the default build settings the appllication on the 'client' pc
will attempt to
to check for updates on application launch.
I suggest you try disabling this auto-update on your next project
build (Accessed by pressing 'Updates' button on the 'Publish' tabbed
page of
'Project Properties') and see if you get the same result.

Unfortunately the same thing happened. It just starts up and then
dies. The exe works ok on it's own.

Thanks,
