> MiNiFi C++ fails to start on older windows versions that don't have the 
> Universal C Runtime embedded or the respective update installed. Microsoft 
> allows for the redistribution of these DLLs and they only take up about 2 MB, 
> so we should allow users to include them in the MSI for private/internal use. 
> The resulting MSI can not be redistributed under Apache-2.0, because the UCRT 
> license is not compatible with Apache-2.0 ([Category 
> X|https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-x]).
> [https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/introducing-the-universal-crt/] (see 
> point 6. near the bottom)
> Redistributable files list:
