SPAPI_E_FILEQUEUE_LOCKED

SPAPI_E_FILEQUEUE_LOCKED means that SetupAPI cannot modify a file queue while the queue is locked by a current operation. File queues represent pending copy, delete, or rename work; changing them during processing would invalidate the state visible to callbacks and installers.

What to check

Finish or cancel the current queue commit before enqueueing additional file operations.
Keep file-queue callbacks from re-entering code that changes the same queue.
Create a separate queue when independent installation phases need to be built concurrently.
