Auto-close service software, instead of skipping

Some software in our catalogue are generally background series and do not interact with users of the computer. For example, Azure Monitor Agent is an example.

Today, Patch My PC sets the feature Manage Conflicting Processes to skip as default for this software - this is undesirable because these services and processes will always be running, and ideally never be in a state of "stopped" - therefore by default, without admin intervention, the patch will never install.

This feature request is to implement a control for Patch My PC to set the default of Manage Conflicting Processes to "auto close", instead of "skip", where appropriate.
