I really don't know why, but you'll be surprised to know how many processes load winmm drivers without any valid reason.
Some of them are included in VMS blacklist, others sould be manually included by the user:
Open configurator --> Options tab --> Device settings --> MIDI clients blacklist

Well, that setup page uses an NSIS plugin that I've helped improving some times ago:
https://nsis.sourceforge.io/LockedList_plug-in

It works by enumerating processes and, if required, ask them to be closed by sending a WM_CLOSE message to their main window.
That's why it doesn't work for processes without a main window, like your Logitech...
You could check this by installing VMS with VMS running:
it should show VMS as the one blocking installation, but close won't work. If you open VMS configurator window (and restart setup) you'll see that the option appears...
It should be better to always add the "Close process" option, but set it to disabled state when close is not available.
I'll have a look at it (ASAP).
Thanks for reporting it.
