    Have just upgraded to Parallels 11. Now whenever I start any application for the first time in Windows 10 I get the following message :

    "The 'Application Name' cannot be started.
    The application is installed in a virtual machine that cannot be located." However, after that the application starts fine. The next time I launch the same application there is no problem.

    Do you have other version of this app installed in Vm? Because it may be a root cause of this message.

    It happens for every single Windows App - Explorer, Task Manager, Outlook, etc. So I do not think that the issue is a result of multiple versions of a application.

    Then please perform the following steps:


    1. Start you Virtual machine and click on the "start" button"
    2. Please type in the "Search" box "cmd" (without quotes) and hit Enter 3. In the Command prompt window please type the following command:
    sfc /scannow and hit Enter.
    3. Please check the results and restart your Virtual machine.

    sfc /scannow reported no issues. After restarting the virtual machine unfortunately the problem is still present.
    Thanks.
