MSIX dependency

Hi, I created an MSIX package with Advanced Installer named R for Windows. Package runs great, with no problems. I have another package R Studio what depends on R for Windows, so without R for Windows R Studio doesn't start. 

So  i added an dependency in the R Studio MSIX package for R for Windows, but the install fails; see logfiles:
