As a result, you might encounter The pipe is being closed error message while installing apps. To fix the problem, be sure to disable all third-party antivirus tools and check if that solves the problem.
If you don’t use third-party antivirus software, disable Windows Defender temporarily and check if that helps. After disabling your antivirus, try to run the setup file again. If the installation is successful, be sure to turn your antivirus back on again.
4. Run application with administrative privileges
- Right-click the problematic application.
