Description:
To install Sitecore 9+, SIM uses SIF under the hood.

Since the WDP packages for On-Premises deployment contain outdated links to the 'Microsoft Web Platform Installer 5.0' in the Prerequisites.json file, the installation of Sitecore may fail in case the Prerequisites task is checked to be run.

It may cause failure during the installation process.
