Symantec Endpoint Protection Has Detected Pending Changes

When installing Symantec Endpoint Protection, sometimes you will see an error message that "Symantec Endpoint Protection has detected that there are pending system changes that require a restart", but a restart does not fix the issue.

In that case, do the following:
Delete the registry key: "PendingFileRenameOperations" in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager".
