MSIX RemoteApp Possible rights issue
Followed a few guides to stage and register apps from a network share everything works perfectly within the WVD host as remote desktop user can launch the app etc.
If I try to add the app to Remote applications the guides suggest creating a lnk shortcut which would link to a path, you then put the lnk shortcut in c:\programdata\microsoft\windows\Start Menu\Programs
i.e
A shortcut to
C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\VLCplayer_3.0.11.0_x64__6kpxaaedanasr\VFS\ProgramFilesX64\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe
This is where I get the problem with Remote Apps, I can only launch this from an admin account / normal accounts will not launch this app
Not sure if this is normal but I notice from powershell, again I can browse to that path and launch the exe from and admin account but not from a standard user account.
one thing I did notice is from that path I can launch a txt file or some other file formats but not exe's
