Tifffile install reports it fails, upon restart Blender finds the dependency

This happens in approx 5% of machines.

Thanks for this update. It actually failed on my machine -

• Windows 11 Enterprise
• 10.0.22631 Build 22631
• Blender 4.1

The log files had this:

INFO:root:Running Pip: '['C:\\Program Files\\Blender Foundation\\Blender 4.1\\4.1\\python\\bin\\python.exe', '-m', 'pip', 'install', 'tifffile==2023.4.12']'
INFO:root:Command succeeded: ['C:\\Program Files\\Blender Foundation\\Blender 4.1\\4.1\\python\\bin\\python.exe', '-m', 'pip', 'install', 'tifffile==2023.4.12']

Requirement already satisfied: numpy in c:\program files\blender foundation\blender 4.1\4.1\python\lib\site-packages (from tifffile==2023.4.12) (1.24.3)

After restarting Blender it had worked!

Thanks for the report! Blender 4.2 will introduce different package management, so hopefully this will fix it!
