One more thing to try, especially if this is a smaller application, would be to try to get in contact with their developers and see if they have a solution for you. Often developers can give you the solution that tech support can't.

Prior to purchasing this system, we tested it extensively under Terminal Services, after the software company told us it would run under WTS. We would receive a message about a log file not being created when running more than one instance, but otherwise it worked great, as did the Citrix implementation. The vendor just released a mandatory update, which suddenly "fixed" the problem: now when a user gets the cannot create log file message, the program quits. The first instance of the application locks a text file, and other instances cannot open it, so the program quits. This is so that a workstation user cannot run more than one copy. I've had a similar problem in the past with another old app, but it was solved by a service resetting a registry key avery 10 seconds or so. I can't think of how to get around this though. Has anyone had a problem like this before?
