We run a Click Once application that runs on an Intranet at our
company and our users run Internet Explorer. The click once
application is able to download to the users PC, but right at
execution, he encounters a fatal error. The fatal error lists the exe
of the click once application.

I have many other users that are able to do the same download and
execute without a problem.

I have checked the usual IE settings that could cause ClickOnce
problems.

Where should I look on the user's PC for an indication of the real
cause of the problem?

Is there something else I should be looking at as a possible cause for
the user to get a fatal error right at execution of a click once
application?

Is he using the same Framework version?

You may have written the program for the 3.5 framework, but he only has 2.0.

Couple of things to check, is your code signed, are your certificates
installed in the publisher store on the client machine, are you reviewing
the stack trace in the browser? Post the stack trace here.

The computers that work and don't work both have the same version of
the .Net Framework (2.0.50727).

How do I gather the stack trace of the browser?

We managed to fix a few strange errors with ClickOnce installation
after installing Service Pack 1 for .Net Framework 2.0. You can give
it a try. I hope there would have been someway to automatically
upgrade all the users with SP1 for 2.0, but couldn't manage that so
manually installed the SP1 on each user's machine.

Also if you can post the error details here, I may have other
suggestions as well.

How are you loading the application? Through a browser or app desktop
shortcut? If it is a browser, there will be an error button for more
details. If it is desktop shortcut, have a look at eventvwr for warning
signs.
