2016 Install Can't run in Silent Mode? Another User is using it!

So for a time now I chose to turn off run the install in 'Silent Mode'... to confirm it ran correctly.

But now I want to switch it back on... I did Create & modify a deployment and turned on Silent Mode... but for some reason it doesn't run in silent mode. And to top it off I cannot launch another install on a second machine... I get 'Another User is running..." or something to that effect.

 

What is going on?

What is your Autodesk 2016 Software name? 

And do you add service packs or hotfixes via Application Manager? 

 

I can test this out for you.

Building Design Suite Ultimate or Premium… and yes I added Application Manager, I think I clicked up to add them all… most likely should have been more selective. (I’m not certain I like this new approach by Autodesk).

 

I would have thought that Autodesk would be more selective what updates they would allow through to be added to a deployment.

 

(sorry, I was at AU2015 last week and couldn’t get a timely reply).

 

Is this a known issue?  Is there clarification as to how to avoid this?
