ERROR_INSTALL_REMOTE_PROHIBITED
ERROR_INSTALL_REMOTE_PROHIBITED means the Windows Installer package cannot be installed in the current Remote Desktop Connection context.
This differs from a package corruption or permission problem: the installation context itself is the blocker.
What to check
- Confirm that the installer is being run through Remote Desktop and not through an approved software-deployment mechanism.
- Use a local console or the organization-approved server deployment process where the package supports it.
- Collect a verbose MSI log before retrying so the blocked action and any secondary error are preserved.
