Daniel,
Thank you for your reply.
Could you please perform the following two tests on the target machine where you're experiencing this issue?
As an Administrator, try to create a text file under: C:\Program Files (x86)
As a Standard User (non-Administrator), try to create a text file under: C:\Program Files (x86)
What are your test results from those two tests?
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

This looks like the MSI is using its built in self heal functionality because something is missing from the application.
When a shortcut is clicked Windows Installer will find what feature it is associated with and then check the key files of the components under that feature. If any key files are missing - it will launch the installer to perform a self-heal.
There is more information on this functionality available here:
