Another installation is in progress

hi, and welcome to sevenfourms ,did you reboot computer and try the install again or
did you do a alt+ctrl+del and open taskmanager and make sure office was shutdown,and try opening it/installing it again good luck

Hello Knukey, and welcome to Seven Forums.

That error means that you currently have something else being installed, and that you cannot install Office until it has finished installing.

If you don't have anything else installing, then restart the computer, and see if you are able to install Office afterwards.

Hope this helps, :)

I cannot see anything else installing, but I keep getting the error. I get the error when executing this file for the install:

Setup.x86.en-US_ProPlusRetail_4XXRN-6372F-2MXTG-84Y3R-367T3_TX_PR_act_1_.exe

as suggested did you reboot the computer and try install again

did some googling ,it could be that office is not fully uninstalled ,the link provides a Microsoft fixit to run and after it done try the install again
How to uninstall Office 2013 or Office 365

Open Control Panel & select Programs & Features & scroll down & check to see if there is already Microsoft Office installed. If so, you will have to uninstall it first. Then restart your computer & try the install again.
Office 2013 starts off using the installation disc & then a lot of the installation is done by downloading from MS & installing, so make sure that your internet access is free & not being used.
