.NET App works in test but not on reboot

I have a .NET application that runs via a .lnk file on the desktop.  This has worked great until I tried it with the latest version.  Now the .NET application runs when I click the TEST button but when I enabled Secure Lockdown and reboot the app tries to run but then doesn't.  Nothing happens. Why is that?

I've adjusted the master application timers, registry settings, etc. but no matter what I do the app won't run when Secure Lockdown is enabled.  I've also disabled all the block settings and it still won't run.  Any ideas? I like having the remote management services but I may have to go back to an old version if there isn't a fix for this.

Why is it being launched via an lnk (Windows Permissions issues become a factor and you'll need to enter the exe's process name in the Process field)? Why not launch the app using the exe?

I've tried that and it does work but I'm concerned the app won't get all the updates.  When you run it from the desktop via IE it checks the server for updates.  When I run the .EXE direct it doesn't do that.  

What changed in the latest version of Secure Lockdown to prevent this from working?  If I leave the old version from 2014 on the kiosk it works fine but as soon as I update to the latest version this problem happens.

I have entered the EXE in the process name but that still doesn't work.

Thanks to the wonderful folks at support I was able to get this figured out.  The trick was to re-create the shortcut and use that as the master application following this article.
