Became interesting. The general state of affairs is this: there is a network folder that is accessible from several computers. This folder contains the program. If several users work with it at the same time, can this affect the stability of the application (in terms of access to resources, libraries, etc.) or did .NET provide for this?

Well, for a spherical program in a vacuum - yes, it can. .NET has nothing to do with it. A simple example - the program has a settings file. It is not known how the settings are written to it - maybe the file for writing is opened once at the start of the program - then other instances simply will not get access to it. In general - options are possible.

1. You will most likely need FullTrust permissions. Or the user is tormented to confirm that they say yes, I want to run this program.
2. How will you update? If someone has it open, you will not be allowed to overwrite the file.
ClickOnce seems to have an option to deploy to a network drive. Well, in general, look, I think it will suit you.
