Have a read of this... https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/windows_faq.html#why-can-i-run-a-command-locally-that-does-not-work-under-ansible Is it possible the installer is expecting a GUI? Sometimes installers have a 'silent' or 'unattended' mode that means they can be made to run without GUI so worth seeing if that is an option. Running via 'become' instead of via psexec might be worth trying too.
