I get the CApplication::Create failed when trying to launch the program and I think it has to do with the fact that my Roaming AppData directory is not local to my profile.
I have a roaming profile set on all my machines in my domain so that my downloads, documents, appdata all redirect to my SAN. The issue seems that since my appdata folder isn't local to my profile XBMC doesn't know what to do. \\server\share\myprofile\roaming\xbmc is there so it looks like the app created it on launch or install. I tried copying it to the local appdata directory C:\Users\MyUN\AppData\Roaming but XBMC still doesn't launch. The directory doesn't seem to be getting updated because the time stamps are still saying 12/2010 which is when I installed it.
If I log on using the local admin account that doesn't have a roaming profile/folder redirect XBMC works like a boss.
