Why does a Retry work for booting up error "1Password couldn't complete its update" / Error: 5-Perm.

As suggested in another forum answer, I just added an exclusion in Windows Security for %LOCALAPPDATA%\1Password. (it resulted in a full path with my user name included)

But since this common bootup error is cleared when I click Retry button, isn't this a timing conflict with the installer? Or does my manual Retry have a different process account since I was the one clicking the button.

I see today in windows_starter_rCURRENT.log many entries like these:

INFO 2024-11-14T06:59:08.651+00:00 main(ThreadId(1)) [1P:op-windows-starter\src\transaction.rs:133] renaming C:\Users<redacted-username>\AppData\Local\1Password\app to C:\Users<redacted-username>\AppData\Local\1Password\previous

ERROR 2024-11-14T06:59:08.668+00:00 ThreadId(8) [1P:foundation\op-install\src\windows\mod.rs:95] Error Win32(0x00000005): Access is denied.__

(I was blocked by the forum from attaching the log file having .log extension.)

I have added the exclusion, but I am confused about why that would work in this case.
The app now claims to be up to date now, since my manual retry didn't result in an error.
