Workflow Error: Application Cannot Be Started

Recently I was trying to set up a workflow in AX 7 / Dynamics 365 for Operations.  I was unable to open the workflow editor.


After clicking the details button I found the following:
Deployment Identity                : Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Framework.Workflow.WorkflowEditorHost.application, Version=7.0.4307.16141, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c3bce3770c238a49, processorArchitecture=amd64
...
System.Deployment.Application.InvalidDeploymentException (Zone) - Deployment and application do not have matching security zones.

The fix in this case was to add AX as a trusted web site in the Internet Explorer Internet Options and to use Internet Explorer instead of Chrome:


I also found there are other common issues with the workflow editor.  If adding AX as a trusted site did not help, you might try looking at the following post:
