    Well, as with most answers I have run into or given, there is no clear-cut circumstance unless I run a perfect test.  Reason I say that is, I did turn Webroot off (I think I had it in this stream but will note it here too).  When I came back to 1PW, it had installed.

    Maybe it was a small quick job done in 1-2 seconds, or maybe it somehow ran.  This last thought I give because a huge majority of the time there is no problem with installs.  It comes infrequently.  Like in months' time usually.  It's like, oh no, this again, I can't recall how long, but it does rear its ugly head.

    I'd lay money that the turn-off does fix it, but it leaves too many open assumptions/questions.  Why does it not incur this problem all the time?  How fast are the installs?  I'd need two windows open which shame on me I could have done.  Next time!!

    It is not a show-stopper, and maybe next time I will test with two windows to watch if it triggers automatically instead of me tabbing back and seeing it was already installed.  If 1PW could, it would be nice for any install to have a confirmation or a pop-up once it starts running.  This of course best for this kind of thing.
