If you're encountering issues launching a Windows Application, we recommend trying the Web version as a first step if you haven't already. For more information about the MSL Applications, see MSL Applications. For guidance about how to launch a Web Application, see How to Launch a Web Application.
To resolve most application launch problems, try resetting your ClickOnce preferences, then attempt to launch the application again, ensuring you have installed the relevant ClickOnce extension. For further information, see How to Launch a Windows Application in Edge, How to Launch a Windows Application in Chrome and How to Launch a Windows Application in Firefox.
