Have you tried going straight to the .exe?
Default directory would be:
C:\Program Files\Rockwell Software\RSView Enterprise\Launcher.exe

My order of trying things:
Reboot from a power off condition. This cures 98% of most everyday problems. When I did PC tech. support, this is #1 on the list to make client do.
Dance the Security Tango at http://www.securitytango.com/
Re-install.

That's a bummer. Have you looked to see if it is running in the task manager once you open it? If I'm not mistaken, it shows up as VStudio.exe.
I guess this won't fix anything, but you can see if it's launching.

One thing you might try is disabling your wireless card.
We had a guy that would launch RSLogix5k, wait, nothing. Double click it again, nothing. Eventually he disabled his wireless and about 10 instances of RSL5k pop up. We could see that the .exe's were in task manager, but the application was not visible until his wireless was disabled (for some reason).
When this would happen, it was repeatable. If the app would not load, disable the wireless. The strange thing was, some days it would load just fine with the wireless on.

Even if you have no activation, the software should open, it just gives you an error.
In fact I've had problems where my Rs5 software won't open after I installed a newer activation for another project. There ends up being a file I have to delete off the root drive to correct the issue.
There is a KB on it, Let me look that up again.

The link is for Rslinx but i've had this issue w/ Rs5 as well.
Move the file don't delete it if you'd like to try this.
