I have an idea what's causing the problem, no fix yet.
For now, you can define your tasks as follows and it will work:
- name: install packages
action:
module: win_exe
exe: 'C:\Users\admin_user\Downloads\myapp.exe'
ArgumentList: '/w /S /v"/l*v
\"C:\Users\admin_user\AppData\Local\Temp\myapp.log\" /qn"'
creates: '{{myapp_root}}/sbin/myapp.exe'
