VB.Net Application Download did not succeed - vb.net

Question

I've encountered an error upon deploying a project for a few times. on my 18th revision of the project I noticed that it is not installing automatically after I opened my application. I tried to manually install it by running my system.application file but unfortunately I'm receiving a "Application Download did not succeed".
I've searched the web and did try some of the solution for this problem but none of them worked. I'm using VS2015 in coding this.

Answer 1

The answer appears to be in the logged info you posted: your application is hosted on/published to a network location (smb file share?) and it has gone away:
Downloading file://users/Team Guilas/Desktop/Kids/Kids Monitoring System.application did not succeed.
The network path was not found.
Check your network connection, server availability, drive mappings etc and try again?
