Had this issue at random on several workstations. Sometimes an Office 2013 (or Visio, Project) package refused to publish on workstations.

Solution

1. Delete package cache (In my case: C:\ProgramData\App-V\0123E69C-B152-4C70-B178-41BE0D2B7D1B)
2. Disable PackageStoreAccessControl (because this was enabled through our custom package install)
   • Can be done using Powershell:

   Set-AppvClientConfiguration -PackageStoreAccessControl 0

    

    

   • Or via a registry change:
   • 
3. Reboot

This fixed the issue.

Because the PackageStoreAccessControl feature will be depreciated in the feature App-V 5 release, it’s recommend to disable it imho.

Thanks to Jur Huisman and Falko Gräfe to bring me on the right track (Microsoft forums)
