Typically, when a workstation is not able to launch Vision or is crashing the fix is to delete the local Vision client and allow it to download again on the next log in.

Deleting the 2.0 folder and rebooting the workstation will correct most workstation issues. The 2.0 folder is a folder that Vision creates upon login that creates the vision client on the local machine.

Locate and delete the 2.0 folder within the user's profile.

o C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Apps\2.0

· For Windows 7,8.1,10/Server 2008:

After the 2.0 folder is deleted and the workstation rebooted, when the user launches Vision, it will reload the ClickOnce files.
