    Replace Windows installer FilesInUse dialog text
    
    Windows installers must provide a FilesInUse dialog, with the intent
    of minimizing the need to restart the system after software
    installations.  For reasons related to the LSA cache, the KfW
    installer always schedules a post-installation reboot (see commit
    50a3c3cbeab32577fba2b21deb72a64015c48ec7).  Reword the FilesInUse
    dialog text to recommend clicking Ignore, causing the conflicting
    files to replaced on the reboot.  (The affected files are likely C
    runtime DLLs, and the existing versions will almost certainly suffice
    if KfW programs are run prior to a reboot.)
