I was trying to install Microsoft Office 365 & Home & Student on My Customer's Computer and Most of the times Installation will stuck on 2%. I did not find any Solution in this Forum nor anywhere else so i fixed this issue by following Method ?

Once the installation is stuck on 2%, I open Task manager and went to Details and End the office oneclick Processes. Once Processes ends i started the Installation and Walaaa it worked and office starting the Installation and did not stuck anymore. 

Note:If it did not help anyone, You may need to End Process the Service again and it will 100% work.

I am not a Microsoft Technician i am just a User.

    Download Microsoft’s SARA Support and Recovery Assistant.

    Choose trouble installing Office. 

    Patience. Many delays between messages requiring andwers.

    SARA ran diagnostics

    Required a reboot

    Loaded Office

    Worked for me! Good luck.

    Please try to restart the Computer and before you install Office again make sure you check the 1click Processes in Task Manager, If they are there end them and then try again.
