Error code 87: Another installer is already running

Error code 87: Another installer is already running

Error code 87 indicates that the conflicting processes that are running in the background are interrupting the setup process. A Microsoft Installer (MSI) process or remnant files or folder may be affecting the fresh installation process. Sometimes, this error occurs due to insufficient permissions.

Solution

Wait for the installation to complete, and then try to install the app again. You can also quit the current installation by following these steps.

  1. Right-click the taskbar, and select Task Manager

  2. Look for an MSI installer that is causing the issue, and select End task.

  3. Once the other installation closes, try to install the app again.
