    Navigate to the %temp% directory and look for the SEP_INST.log file. Post it here so it can be reviewed.

    Thanks.

    If it's windows 8 machine check this info.

    There is a known issue, Symantec Endpoint Protection client fails to install to recently updated Windows 8 computers. Please refer to below technote for more details. Check whether you are having the same issue.

    Hello,

    Upon checking your logs, we found these errors..

    ScriptGen: ShowServiceProgress() script execution failed.
    ScriptGen: ShowServiceProgress() reset script failure event.
    ScriptGen: ShowServiceProgress() is returning an error (so close to the end!)
    CustomAction ShowServiceProgress returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
    Action ended 13:56:21: InstallFinalize. Return value 3.
    MSI (s) (0C:84) [13:56:21:077]: Note: 1: 2265 2:  3: -2147287035 
    MSI (s) (0C:84) [13:56:21:078]: User policy value 'DisableRollback' is 0
    MSI (s) (0C:84) [13:56:21:078]: Machine policy value 'DisableRollback' is 0
     

     

    Symantec is aware of this problem and will update this document when a solution becomes available.

    Until a solution is provided, you can work around this problem using on of the following:

    • Disable Windows Defender before installing the SEP client
    • Remove KB2781197 before installing the SEP client
