Desktop app launched but startApplication() steps failed before the wait time

when i am trying to launch desktop app using Windows.startApplication() with desiredCapabilities = {“ms:waitForAppLaunch”:“50”} once i run app is launched after 30 sec but startApplication() failed before that.

I have windriver opened and appium already running.
