App-V Package Unable to Create Child Process – Permission Issue

Question

We are facing an issue with an application packaged using Microsoft App-V. The application is unable to create a child process and throws the following error:

scss
CopyEdit
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): The requested operation requires elevation
   at LeapTest.AutomationStudio.Common.Helpers.DesktopHelper.CreateUserProcess(IntPtr userToken, NewProcessSettings settings, IntPtr environmentHandle)

Issue Details:

• Application Name: LEAPWORK Automation Studio
• App-V Package Path: (Provide path if applicable)
• Error Message: The requested operation requires elevation
• Observed Behavior:
  • The main application runs successfully but fails to create a child process.
  • This issue is only observed when running inside the App-V package. Running the application outside App-V does not cause this problem.
  • The issue persists even when running the application with administrative privileges.

Expected Behavior:

The application should be able to create child processes inside the App-V environment, just as it does outside the virtualized environment.

Request for Assistance:

• Are there specific App-V settings or policies that could be blocking child process creation?
• What additional permissions or configurations should be applied to allow process creation within an App-V package?
• Are there any known limitations of App-V that could be causing this issue?

Please provide guidance on resolving this issue. Let me know if any additional logs or information are needed.
