Office Installation stuck at 2% (Office for Windows)

I have had the same problem, the installer stuck at 2% the entire night. I am providing a version of the fix that seems to work after hours of tinkering around.

1. Task Manager --> end all versions of Microsoft Installers Click to Run, etc.
2. open services.msc --> locate Microsoft Office Click-to-Run Service --> Stop.
3. Execute the installer again --> this will cause the status bar and the Windows installer banner to come up --> you will also notice the service has been started again ( as this was and should remain in automatic)
4. Hopefully you will zoom past 2 PC. and eventually complete.

Hope this helps

I have tried everything, I even Installed Microsoft Office Removal tool but that did'nt worked either, So i went to Task Manager and Ended Oneclickoffice Services and then it worked, I am a Local tech here i have done Bachelors in Computer Science, This issue occurred in my 30 to 40 Customers and i did the same thing to all of them in soe cases i did it couple of time but it worked everytime, I am unaware about this cause but it seems installation somehow stuck and by stopping the Oneclick Process and Install Office then again worked for me. 

This answer is on the right track but is incomplete. The service in question is named "ClickToRunSvc" and its description is "Microsoft Office Click-to-Run Service." You do need to stop it, but you must restart it if it doesn't do so itself. It this service remains stopped, the installation will not proceed.

Thanks for updating us with the status of your concern. Since it already worked on your end at the time that you’ve stopped the Oneclick process, we’d recommend that you monitor and observe its behavior.
