Issues fixed

Installer not running if using Nvidia card

The issue is caused by the process nvcontainer.exe^{[citation needed]}

Manually close tasks^{[citation needed]}
Open the Task Manager. Make sure the "Details" tab is visible and activate it. Find the `Superbike.exe` executable, right-click on it, and select "Analyze wait chain." In the window that appears, `Superbike.exe` will be shown along with other program(s) that cause(s) the installer to hang. Close those programs and the installer will continue normally.
