Side-by-side error when running program with manifest present and from a different computer

Question

I have a VB6 application that uses a pack of VB dlls that were built using the .NET 4.7.2 framework.

Whenever i try to run the application from a different computer, with the application manifest present, i get the "side-by-side configuration incorrect" error. When i say different computer, i mean running the program using a shortcut to a central applications server where the app is located (i.e. \192....\c$\appFolder).

I have tried embedding the manifest into the .exe but to no avail.

Here is my sxstrace file.
