This is driving me crazy. I have an Azure application that used to work fine in the computer emulator installed on a W2012R2 VM, but after an update (don't remember if it was VS, Azure or Windows), it cannot start anymore. Even old, stable commits are not starting. My investigation found that WaHostBootstrapper starts and almost immediately exits without loading my application.
The WaHostBootstrapper.log shows only this:

[00008268:00008396, 2016/02/13, 04:29:02.801, ERROR] <- wmain=0x80070057
Any clue to spot the root cause?
