I understand that you are trying to run ZTreeWin on one computer and rpVT on another.

I have never tried this with any ZAAP, but can't see why it wouldn't work.
I will try some time.

I could ask WHY?

A ZAAP is a ZTreeWin Extension, it makes more sense to run it from the same machine.
Indeed I have all my ZAAP in the ZTreeWin directory or subdirectories.

rpVT uses a different method to find ZTreeWin than I do.
I look through all applications until I find ztw.exe, rather than looking at the title.

Most of my ZAAP allow the user to force the ZTreeWin directory, rpVT has similar, but seems to use this as a hint to select instances, and still does its own find.

Maybe some time I should get the source of rpVT and see how Rudy does it.
