SOLVED – Citrix XenApp 7.8 Publish VBScript

Recently I’ve experienced an issue with running a vbscript as a published application after upgrading to XenApp 7.8 Platinum.

The path I used in the published application was

%systemroot%\system32\wscript.exe /nologo

and the command line argument as

\\server\share\folder\script.vbs

This worked absolutely fine in XenApp 7.6, but after upgrading to 7.8 it stopped working.

The solution in the end was simple, remove %systemroot% and use

c:\windows\system32\wscript.exe

instead (notice there is no /nologo either)
