When folder redirection is used, some of functionality within windows installer might fail due to permission issue.
for e.g.Disk cost calculation on the folder share on the network. \\server\sharename\%username%. If User wouldn't have read permission on \\server\sharename, installer could fail.
If the roaming profile is setup properly without folder redirection, user profile would be transparent to Windows applications.
