Unable to install MSI in silent mode with SYSTEM user

I have an MSI project that installs without issue when running in silent mode with a user account, however it does not install when running in silent mode as SYSTEM user.

Here is my command line with options CEMLinkClientSetup.msi/quiet ALLUSERS=1 /l*v C:\temp\test.log

We are running InstallAware X5 v8.4.2016

Attached you will find 2 install logs. One from each test scenario.

I did read one support message board entry that talked about a similar issue caused by “Browse” button on a destination dialog. I created a test project where I removed that button and got the same results.
