Marton Szasz reopened MINIFICPP-1375:
-------------------------------------
Reopened again because on some systems the ucrt DLLs are not under
"$ENV{WindowsSdkDir}Redist\\ucrt\\DLLs\\$ENV{Platform}", but at
"$ENV{WindowsSdkDir}Redist\\$ENV{WindowsSDKVersion}ucrt\\DLLs\\$ENV{Platform}"
(contrary to MS docs)
> Ship Universal C Runtime DLLs

> 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 ship them with the MSI for extra compatibility.
