      In summary, a bad BIOS prevents QTemporaryFile from generating
      different filenames each run. The Qt Installer encounters name
      conflicts and produces a cryptic error message:

      Cannot open file "" for writing: No file name specified

      Is this worth a post on the Qt Blog? I foresee many frustrated and
      confused Ryzen users out there who would benefit from a reminder to
      update their BIOS.

      Qt has been patched, and for 5.12 series the patch is here:
      https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/275914

      Qt Installer Framework uses Qt 5.12.4 which doesn't have the patch. Upgrading to at least Qt 5.12.6 should fix this problem.
