This relatively new technology was developed in order to simplify the dependencies needed during the installation process.\\r\\nWhat is causing the 'Microsoft setup boots-trapper had stopped working' error\\r\\nWe investigated this particular issue by looking at various user reports and the repair strategies that the most affected users have deployed in order to resolve the problem.

As it turns out, there are several overprotective AV suites (McAfee, Avast, potentially more) that will block the updating feature of the Microsoft Office suite, which will end up triggering the 'Microsoft setup boots-trapper had stopped working' error.\\r\\n\\r\\nIf this scenario is applicable to your situation, you might be able to resolve the issue by simply disabling the real-time protection of your security suite. Of course, the steps of doing this are specific to the AV suite that you're using.\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\nBut keep in mind that some users have reported that the issue was only resolved after they completely uninstalled their 3rd party antivirus from their system.
