[Bug 1826071] Re: Hugin installer conflicts with other software
Hugin installs all its own files in its own directory. So there is no conflict except Hugin is already running.
The installer bundles also "Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019". These files are provided by Microsoft and are needed to run Hugin. For convenience these files are included in the installer.
So it seems the other mentions programs "Dell SupportAssist Remediation" and "Intel(R) TPM Provisioning Service" (for me these are no "system" programs, these are third party programs concerning the OS) also depend on these Redistributable.
Normally after updating the Redistributable old programs should still run, but I can't guarantee this.
PS: These Redistributable are needed by all programs which are compiled
with Visual Studio (and the link with the dynamic runtime). So this
can't be avoided.

Title:
Hugin installer conflicts with other software
Status in Hugin:
Invalid
Bug description:
When I tried to install Hugin 2019.0.0 on my Dell Inspiron 24-5459 AIO
running Windows 10, I was presented with a "Files in Use" dialog box
stating that these two applications were using files gthat Hugin
needed to update:
Dell SupportAssist Remediation
Intel(R) TPM Provisioning Service
The latter is a service that controls system security via encryption
using the TPM chip built into my system.
I obviously do not want Hugin to override any of the files used by
this security service with their own, so I was forced to abort the
installation.
I would suggest you fix this problem so that your app does not
conflict with either of these system apps. You could potentially
jeopardize an encrypted system's ability to function if the TPM
provisioning service is adversely affected by a Hugin installation.
Best,
Dennis
