That makes sense.

Just a suggestion, but you might want to consider making the
installation of the Redistributable be optional in the case where it is
already present on the user's system. If the user chooses not to update
their Redistributable with your bundled version, then the worst that
will happen is that Hugin won't run. But that would be preferable (to
me) than having the TPM Provisioning Service not run.

And if Hugin does run, then there is no risk involved.

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
