Error 1603 can arise from conflicts with other installed software or missing dependencies. For instance, if the installation requires a particular version of the .NET Framework, and a conflicting or missing version is present, the install can fail. To address this, uninstall any conflicting software. Make sure all dependencies (e.g., .NET Framework, Visual C++ Redistributables) are correctly installed and up-to-date. You may also need to manually install a dependency or install it prior to the MSI file.
