While I trying to install Office 2013, the process of the background installation seem like pausing at 84% and not moving.

    • Click start
    • right click compute
    • click manage
    • under system tool
    • click local users and group.
    • in the right pane double click groups
    • double click Administrators
    • click add
    • from location select your local computer name.
    • type "N" under "enter the object names to select (example)
    • Slect "NETWORK SERVICE"
    • click OK out of it.
    • Try the install of the office again.

     

     

     Is your information above for Windows 7 or 8?  I'm running 7.  After clicking start, then right clicking computer and selecting manage, the computer management screen opens up but there is no local users and group under system tools.  Can you offer any suggestions?

    Thank,

    Error is due to the Network Service account don't have privilage to start the service "Office Software Protection Platform".

    Solution

    go the the following site and apply the fixit.

    then go your local administrators group and add local Network Service account to it.

    Try to install office again.

    If it get stuck again stop the print spooler service. and try again.

    It will work.
