When installing or updating MYOB software, a window with the title Windows Installer Coordinator may appear. The progress bar on this window continues endlessly as it is caught in a loop.

This is an issue with Windows Installer RDS Compatibility which you can resolve by turning this feature off.

To do this go through Group Policy or through a registry edit. This will require technical expertise so please ask your IT professional.
