Since those applications will not install if IE and Office applications are running. Because apps is running in the back ground and the application dialog box required input which will have the info like “ applications are running please close them to continue the installation” with continue to kill them, Retry, cancel button (which we can see after run time expired the installation will give 1603 error.) Solution: - these kinds of applications can be test debugged by Installing with /qb and verbose mode option. Kiran..
